What is the difference between a dietitian and a nutrition physician?
A dietitian specializes in creating dietary plans, providing nutrition counseling, and follow-up, while a nutrition physician focuses on medical diagnosis and treating nutrition-related diseases such as diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

Can a dietitian prescribe medication?
No, dietitians provide dietary programs and nutritional supplements, while prescribing medication is the responsibility of the attending physician.

How do I choose between a dietitian and an endocrinologist?
If you suffer from a chronic disease such as diabetes or hypertension, consult an endocrinologist. If your goal is weight loss or improving your diet, consult a dietitian.

What is the difference between treating obesity and treating underweight?
Obesity treatment aims at safe weight loss through reducing calorie intake, increasing calorie burn, and modifying eating behavior, while underweight treatment focuses on healthy weight gain by increasing calories and protein intake and building muscle mass in a balanced way.

Are nutritional results permanent?
This depends on the patient’s commitment to the diet and lifestyle changes. Rapid weight loss without habit changes may lead to weight regain, while gradual changes lead to sustainable results.

What are the potential risks of restrictive diets?
They may include malnutrition, vitamin deficiencies, muscle loss, eating disorders, or problems with cholesterol and blood pressure. That’s why our center offers safe and balanced programs under medical supervision.

What is the difference between dietary supplements and medications?
Dietary supplements are used to compensate for vitamin and mineral deficiencies and improve nutrition, while medications are used to treat diseases such as diabetes or high cholesterol.

Does intermittent fasting help with weight loss?
Yes, intermittent fasting can support weight loss, but it is not suitable for everyone—especially people with diabetes, pregnant women, or breastfeeding mothers—and requires supervision by a dietitian.

What are the latest technologies used in body analysis?
They include the InBody device for body composition analysis, measurement of basal metabolic rate, and accurate analysis of fat, muscle, and water distribution in the body.

Can high cholesterol be managed through diet alone?
Yes, cholesterol levels can be significantly improved through the right diet, but severe cases may require medication alongside nutrition.

Can a diet be followed during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Weight-loss diets are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, but nutrition can be adjusted to ensure the health of mother and child while maintaining a healthy weight.

Can I stop following a diet if I am dissatisfied with the results?
Yes, the diet can be adjusted at any time depending on the body’s response and desired goals, with continuous follow-up to ensure the best outcomes.

What are the causes of weight gain despite following a diet?
Causes may include slow metabolism, insulin resistance, thyroid problems, or inaccurate calorie tracking. It is recommended to consult a dietitian for a proper assessment.

Are eating disorders linked to weight gain? How can they be treated?
Yes, eating disorders such as emotional eating or binge eating can lead to weight gain.
In our Nutrition Department, we offer comprehensive treatment that includes psychological and behavioral therapy in addition to dietary management.
