The Medical Nutrition and Dietetics Department of Güven Hospital in Ankara provides nutritional counseling and medical nutrition therapy across all stages of life — from childhood to adulthood, pregnancy to lactation, and into old age. The department scientifically guides individuals on how to maintain a healthy diet, stay fit, and manage weight effectively, thereby enhancing overall quality of life.
To maintain a healthy and energetic life, it is essential to have accurate knowledge about adequate and balanced nutrition and to apply it throughout every stage of life. With the guidance of the dietitians at Güven Hospital’s Medical Nutrition and Dietetics Department, you can access up-to-date, evidence-based information and achieve a healthier and higher-quality lifestyle.
The Medical Nutrition and Dietetics Department prepares individualized nutrition plans tailored to each person’s specific needs. Through outpatient services, it aims to teach adequate, balanced, and correct nutrition, promote behavioral changes, and improve overall quality of life by addressing existing health concerns. At our Weight Management Center, an individual’s eating habits are first reviewed in detail, followed by body composition analysis to determine body fat, muscle, and water percentages, as well as metabolic rate.
These findings, combined with factors such as age, gender, physical activity level, and blood test results, are used to create a personalized nutrition program, which is then monitored regularly. Additionally, pediatric diet services focus on infant and childhood nutrition and food allergies; pregnancy and lactation nutrition programs are provided for expectant and nursing mothers; endocrine diet services support patients with diabetes and hormonal disorders; and nephrology diet services design personalized programs for patients with kidney diseases (acute and chronic renal failure). Educational programs and ongoing follow-up are integral parts of our care process.
Our outpatient clinic also offers counseling on many other topics and is ready to support you with accurate, up-to-date, and scientific information on healthy nutrition throughout your journey toward a healthier life.
