What is Nutrition and Diet?

Nutrition is essential for a healthy life. Recent studies have reported that adequate and balanced nutrition reduces the risk of many chronic diseases. Having sufficient and balanced nutrition plays an important role in preventing diseases and treating chronic conditions.

Based on the individual’s age, gender, physical activity level, eating habits, body analysis, and blood findings, a personalized nutrition program is created and regularly followed up.

For inpatients, dietitians plan nutrition programs tailored to their specific conditions. Patients and their families are informed about the nutrition program, and during their hospital stay, nutrition education is provided. If necessary, personalized home nutrition programs are created for patients.
