OBESITY PROBLEM HAS INCREASED
Obesity is unfortunately a growing metabolic disease in the world. According to the latest data, obese individuals in our country have a rate of 30 percent. The pandemic process, which we have been experiencing for about 1.5 years, also seems to increase these rates. According to a study, weight gain was observed in 60 percent of people. Lack of physical activity, unbalanced and overeating at home are the most important causes of weight gain in this difficult process that we stay at home. But with the summer, the flurry of weight loss began. But instead of healthy weight loss methods, there are diets that are made without knowing whether it is unhealthy or appropriate to get fast results, unfortunately… as a result the balance of the metabolism deteriorates and it becomes easier to gain weight again.

DIET IS PERSONALIZED
The right diet or healthy eating program is the one that suits the person. You can determine this by examining your best Turkish doctor and, if necessary, evaluating your dietitian along with treatment. Programs suitable for special situations, such as gluten-free diets, ketogenic diets, work very well under the control of a dietitian.
