Optimum nutrition means providing your body with exactly what it needs—at every stage of life—to support energy, immunity, metabolism, brain function, and healing. At Patients Medical in NYC, our Optimum Nutrition program takes a functional medicine approach. We dive deeper than “eat healthy”—using advanced testing and personalized protocols—so that every bite, supplement, and lifestyle habit contributes to peak wellness and long-term vitality
Optimum Nutrition is a personalized, evidence-based nutrition program designed to meet your unique physiological needs. Starting with comprehensive lab testing, we assess your macronutrient balance, vitamin/mineral levels, gut health, inflammation, and metabolism. Then we prescribe tailored dietary plans, nutrient-dense food strategies, supplementation, and lifestyle adjustments. The aim: nourish your body, optimize cellular function—and prevent or reverse chronic imbalances at the root level.
Based on labs and lifestyle, we create a nutrient-rich diet that fits you—whether Mediterranean, plant-forward, low-carb, or optimized for digestion. We design menus that maximize nutrient density, support metabolic goals (weight, energy, inflammation), and are sustainable long-term. You’ll learn meal prep, food quality sourcing, and mindful eating—all essential for metabolic reset and health longevity.
Supplementation fills gaps in diet and supports lab-identified deficiencies. We use clinical-grade vitamins, minerals, omega-3s, probiotics, and botanicals—each prescribed with clear goals, timing, and dosing. All protocols are physician-supervised to optimize absorption, prevent interactions, and support mitochondrial health, detoxification, immune competence, or metabolic balance.
Healthy digestion is the foundation of nutrient absorption. Our protocols include pre/probiotics, digestive enzymes, gut-healing nutrients (e.g., L‑glutamine), and targeted support for dysbiosis or permeability. We re-evaluate gut panels to ensure resolution. Improving microbiome health boosts immunity, mood, skin, and energy by restoring your digestion-to-nutrition pipeline.
When warranted, we coordinate with obesity medicine specialists to prescribe FDA-approved medications such as orlistat, semaglutide, liraglutide, and others. Medications are integrated alongside nutrition, exercise, and therapy. We monitor response and adjust dosage, ensuring a safe, synergistic, and personalized approach—enhancing metabolic outcomes and reducing weight regain.
Our team conducts follow-up labs to track improvements, adjust nutrient prescriptions, and refine protocols. We review symptom diaries and empower you through education. You’ll receive personalized feedback on food choices, supplement timing, digestion, energy, mood, and metabolic markers—ensuring a clear roadmap toward foundational health.
Samantha, 38, came to us with fatigue, brain fog, frequent colds, and questionable diet habits. Lab results showed low vitamin D, B12, elevated inflammation, and gut dysbiosis. We created a nutrient-dense meal plan with anti-inflammatory foods, added targeted supplements, and addressed her sleep/water habits. Within three months, she reported increased energy, clearer thinking, fewer sick days, and normalized vitamin and inflammatory markers—and now maintains her health independently.

We use labs to detect hidden nutrient, digestion, or metabolic issues—then customize nutrition instead of following one-size diets.
Some people only supplement short-term to correct deficiencies; others maintain nutritional support long-term depending on genetics, digestion, and lifestyle.
Labs can improve within 6–12 weeks; symptom relief often starts within 2–4 weeks.
No—it complements your primary care; we coordinate lab trends and nutrient recommendations with your physician.
Yes—we tailor dietary plans to any eating preference and metabolic goal (e.g., plant-based, low-carb, keto).
We’re out-of-network, but we provide superbills. Some plans reimburse nutrition and supplement-related services.
Patients Medical specializes in gently helping the patient identify the root cause of their medical issues and then assist them to recover from their problems to help them move forward to good health.
