About
Hello, I am Specialist. Dyt. Selvi Akman.
I graduated from Trakya University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nutrition and Dietetics in 2014. I started my career in different health institutions in Istanbul and after my clinical experience, I founded my own nutrition and diet consultancy center in 2018. In 2019, I completed my master's degree at Okan University Institute of Health Sciences and received the title of Specialist Dietitian.
Throughout my professional life, I have placed importance on following scientific developments closely and constantly updating my knowledge. I continue to offer up-to-date and scientific approaches to my clients with the training I receive in many areas such as oncology nutrition, bariatric surgery, nutrigenetics, functional medicine, sports nutrition and psychodiet.
The most important experience I gained over the years was seeing that each individual's needs are different. Therefore, when working with my clients, I focus not only on the nutrition plan; I adopt a holistic perspective on their life habits, health history, goals and relationship with food.
My Nutrition ApproachI believe that nutrition is not just a temporary process implemented to achieve a specific goal, but the basis of healthy habits that can be maintained throughout life.
The nutrition plan I prepare for each of my clients; I shape it individually according to health status, lifestyle, daily routine, nutritional habits and personal goals. My goal is to support my clients in gaining healthy living habits in the long term by offering applicable and sustainable solutions.
Academic and Professional Development
I take care to continue my professional development with the understanding of continuous education. In addition to the training and congresses I attended, I believe that my individual consultancy experience is also an important part of my professional development.
In addition to individual consultancy, I provided corporate nutrition training for employees of institutions such as Sabancı DX, Akbank, IN Game Group, Insider and Kibar Holding.In 2024, I contributed to Chef Kevser Demir Türkdoğan's book "Such a Diet Cannot Be" with nutritional values and healthy nutrition contents. With the Psychodiet Practitioner training I completed in the same year, I further developed my approach that evaluates nutrition from its biological, behavioral and psychological dimensions.
My Working Areas
My professional work; I continue my work in the fields of weight management (weight loss, weight gain and weight maintenance), nutrition consultancy in diseases, nutrition in women's health and hormonal periods, nutrition during pregnancy and breastfeeding, sports nutrition and vegan nutrition.
To my clients; I offer scientifically based and personalized nutrition consultancy for different health conditions such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, thyroid diseases, digestive system diseases, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), food allergies and intolerances.
My Consulting Process
My priority during the counseling process is to evaluate my clients from a holistic perspective and create a road map that suits their needs.Meetings can be held online or face to face, and I adopt the same care, follow-up approach and consultancy approach in both methods. I aim to accompany my clients on their healthy life journey with a scientifically based, personalized and sustainable nutrition approach.
