About Us
Ilkay Baseski
Ilkay Baseski is a Registered Dietitian (RD) and co-founder of Bite of Mind Podcast. She holds a BSc in Nutrition & Dietetics, a MSc in Human Nutrition, has completed an accredited dietetic internship, and is currently regulated as a registered dietitian by the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR).
Her guiding philosophy is one she returns to often: “If life gives you lemons, eat the whole lemon — the peel has fiber, too.”
To Ilkay, this is about more than fiber. It’s about taking what life hands you and finding value where others might overlook it. It’s about flexibility, resourcefulness, and choosing nourishment over rigid rules.
She believes nutrition isn’t about perfection or restriction but instead, nutrition is about curiosity, practicality, and finding sustainable habits that support both body and mind. In her practice, she values combining straightforward nutrition science with empathy and humor, helping people build confidence, reduce shame, and find joy in their daily eating habits.
