Holistic Nutrition
Holistic nutrition is a nutritional approach that considers not only physical health but also mental, spiritual and emotional balance. Today, rapidly increasing chronic diseases, stress-related disorders and conditions that negatively affect the quality of life require individuals to reconsider their nutritional habits. With years of experience and numerous trainings, Dr. Nurcivan ÜNSAL ÜZ guides individuals to nourish their bodies in a therapeutic way. Holistic nutrition refers to an approach where we consider the physical, mental and emotional health of the individual as a whole. I prepare personalized holistic nutrition programs by taking into account the lifestyle, biological needs and health history of my clients. Our main goal in this process is not only to lose weight, but also to increase energy levels, strengthen the immune system and increase general health. In line with the basic principles of holistic nutrition, we prioritize fresh and natural foods, support balanced macro and micronutrient intake and focus on improving digestive health. In the programs we prepare, we aim to achieve permanent results by considering not only physical needs but also emotional eating habits. I transform the weight loss process into a sustainable health journey and support my clients holistically with complementary elements such as stress management, sleep patterns and motivation support. In this way, I help you both reach your ideal weight and determine a long-term health goal.
What is Holistic Nutrition?
Holistic nutrition is a nutritional approach that addresses the physical, mental and emotional health of an individual as a whole. This approach aims to evaluate the overall effect of the foods we eat on our bodies, rather than focusing solely on calories, diet lists or weight loss. Nutrition not only provides the energy and nutrients the body needs; it also strengthens the immune system, balances the mood and increases the quality of life. Holistic nutrition takes into account the genetic structure, lifestyle, nutritional needs and environmental conditions of each individual. Choosing the right foods, consuming these foods at the right time and in the right way supports the body's natural healing mechanisms. In addition, in this approach, where spiritual and mental nutrition is at least as important as physical nutrition, emotional balance is achieved through methods such as meditation, breathing exercises and stress management. As a result, holistic nutrition aims not only to prevent diseases but also to increase the life energy of the individual and to lead a healthier and more balanced life.
Basic Principles of Holistic Nutrition
Dr. Ünsal Üz’s understanding of nutrition is shaped by the principle of “Let your food be your medicine.” This understanding advocates that each individual should listen to their own body and consume the right foods at the right time. The human body produces a response to every food they eat; this response either creates a healing effect or invites disease. Therefore, nutrition is not only a need, but also a treatment tool.
Emphasizing that nutrition does not only affect the physical body, Dr. Ünsal Üz also draws attention to the importance of mental and spiritual nutrition. A healthy body forms a whole with a balanced mind and a peaceful mood. In order to achieve this balance, Dr. Ünsal Üz also offers meditation and breathing techniques as part of holistic nutrition programs.
Epigenetics and Nutrition
Dr. Ünsal Üz emphasizes the connection between epigenetics and nutrition. Epigenetics is a branch of science that examines how genes can be changed by environmental and lifestyle factors. He states that only 5% of genetic diseases are hereditary, while the remaining 95% are directly related to the individual's lifestyle and nutritional preferences. While poor eating habits can activate dormant genes and cause diseases, proper nutrition can suppress these genes and provide a healthy life.
Dr. Ünsal Üz helps individuals learn to nourish their bodies correctly with epigenetics-based nutrition programs. This process allows individuals to see every bite they eat as a healing tool, allowing them to radically improve their health.

Holistic Nutrition Programs with Dr. Nurcivan ÜNSAL ÜZ
Dr. Ünsal Üz designs therapeutic and preventive diet programs that are suitable for each individual's needs. These programs aim to increase not only the individual's physical health but also their overall life energy and quality of life. Here are Dr. Ünsal Üz's prominent holistic nutrition programs:
1. Elimination Diet
An elimination diet aims to reduce toxin load for individuals with autoimmune diseases. Certain foods are temporarily removed from the diet to assess the body's response. During this process, it is determined which foods have negative effects on the individual and the diet is reshaped according to the individual's needs.
2. Histamine Intolerance Diet
Histamine intolerance occurs as a result of sensitivity to foods high in histamine. Dr. Ünsal Üz ensures that the body is rebalanced by removing yeast foods and histamine-rich foods from the diet for a certain period of time. This program is especially effective for individuals who have chronic headaches, digestive problems, and skin problems.
3. SIBO Diet
SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) is a condition associated with leaky gut syndrome. It causes symptoms such as intense gas, bloating, and decreased brain function. With this diet, Dr. Ünsal Üz aims to control the growth of pathogenic bacteria and restore intestinal health.
4. Medical Nutrition Program
This program is prepared for individuals with absorption problems. It includes therapeutic processes such as intestinal detox, liver detox and heavy metal detox. The aim is to cleanse the body of toxins and increase its natural healing capacity.
5. GAPS Diet
The GAPS diet, which targets the balance between the gut and the brain, is used in neurological and psychological problems. By improving the gut flora and reducing inflammation, the general health of individuals is improved.
6. Personalized Nutrition Protocols
Dr. Ünsal Üz prepares personalized nutrition plans according to each individual's genetic structure, lifestyle and health status. These plans aim to increase the person's life energy and provide body balance.
The Importance of Spiritual and Mental Nutrition
Dr. Ünsal Üz states that nutrition is not only a physical process, but also its mental and spiritual dimensions are equally important. Stress and emotional fluctuations can directly affect the body's reactions to nutrients. For this reason, Dr. Ünsal Üz's holistic nutrition programs are supported by meditation, breathing techniques and mindfulness practices. These methods enable the individual to feel better and live a balanced life.
