  1. "Because of" is a way of explaining something, a reason

    "due to" serves as a consequence.

    They both pretty much have the same use.

    Because of my leg injury, I cannot run.

    Due to the fact that I dieted last month, I was able to lose 5 pounds


  2. Merriam Webster regards them as synonymous, so they can be used interchangeably.
