At Yeditepe University Hospital, we know how diet is related to health and the maintenance of good health at every stage in life. There is no single lifestyle and diet that suits everyone. Therefore every individual needs a nutritional solution that works for them. Our metabolisms and lifestyles are as unique as our fingerprints. Nutrition is a science. If you want to take a step towards a healthy and high quality life, you need to start with changes to your dietary habits in line with your lifestyle. Small, achievable targets are much more likely to work than overambitious targets. You should not invest in magic formulae and miracle diets. Inaccurate information in the media on nutrition and diet can mislead us and have a negative impact on our health and quality of life. For these reasons, you should contact a specialist nutritionist and dietician for guidance.
Dieting is not about depriving yourself of your favorite food. The crucial point is that your diet should suit you, not that you should suit your diet. A diet requires you to consume the amount of each food group that is right for you. At Yeditepe University Hospital’s Diet and Nutrition department we will help you to diet by consuming all your preferred foods by means of an individualized healthy eating program. The important issue in dieting is not what you eat, so much as at what time of day, and how much. Contrary to what most of us think, dieting is not just about losing weight. Following our nutritionist and dietician’s “healthy eating program” will also improve your quality of life.
About 35% of Turkey’s population is overweight; the rate is even higher in many countries.
