Childhood and adolescence are critical periods of rapid growth and development, laying the foundation for lifelong eating habits. Inadequate or unbalanced nutrition during this period can lead to many problems, from growth delays to obesity, and from learning difficulties to hormonal disorders.
Our child and adolescent nutrition program, prepared by our expert dietitians, is personalized according to age, gender, physical activity level and any existing health conditions. Our goal is to help children and young people grow healthily with adequate and balanced nutrition, improve their school performance and gain healthy eating habits.
Our child and adolescent nutrition program not only supports healthy growth but also builds healthy habits that last a lifetime:

Height, weight, growth curves, daily eating habits, physical activity level and any health conditions are examined in detail. A personalized nutrition program is prepared together with the family. In regular follow-up sessions, growth and development are monitored and the program is updated to meet current needs.

Picky eating phases are normal. Instead of forcing, try presenting different foods in fun ways, involving your child in meal preparation and being a role model — these are effective methods.
Protein, calcium, iron and zinc needs increase during adolescence. Dairy products, meat, eggs, legumes and green leafy vegetables are important.
Banning it completely backfires. Keep healthy alternatives at home and limit junk food to 1-2 times a week.
A balanced lunchbox can be prepared with whole-grain bread, cheese, seasonal fruit, nuts and ayran.
Never put them on a diet. A program that supports their growth and builds healthy habits should be followed under expert dietitian supervision.
If you notice signs such as excessive weight loss, going to the bathroom after meals, anxiety at mealtimes or avoiding eating in social settings, be sure to consult a specialist.
6-10 glasses of water a day are recommended depending on the child's weight. Keeping a water bottle nearby can help build the habit.
Energy and protein needs increase. Adequate carbohydrate, protein and fluid intake should be ensured, with attention to pre- and post-training nutrition.
Genetic factors are decisive, but adequate protein, calcium, zinc and vitamin D intake supports growth.
Adequate intake from various food groups should be ensured with a routine of 3 main meals and 2 snacks.
Breakfast improves concentration, supports school performance and helps maintain a healthy body weight.
Foods rich in vitamin C, zinc and probiotics (citrus fruits, yogurt, kefir, fish) support immunity.
