Mary Opfer, a certified integrative functional nutritionist and registered dietitian, has opened a private practice in Somers offering custom treatment plans for people who are dealing with acute or chronic conditions or who want to achieve or maintain their best health.

“Whether you’ve been diagnosed with an illness, suffer from fatigue, chronic constipation, bloating, GI issues or autoimmune disorders, or simply want to be in optimal health, I can help you reach your goal by uncovering the root causes of your nutritional concerns and giving you an individualized treatment plan,” she says.

Combining her “food as medicine” approach and her culinary background, Opfer helps clients create realistic meal plans to put their specific health goals into action. “My technique helps reduce inflammation, eliminate toxins and lower blood sugar utilizing food as medicine and recommending lifestyle modifications,” she says. “The end results are optimal health, more energy, regularity, less bloating, restful sleep and reduced migraine frequency.”

A sought-after health and wellness speaker and an adjunct professor at the City University of New York, Opfer regularly conducts healthy cooking classes at Hanover Farm in Yorktown and is a contributor to Halston Media and various published cookbooks. She offers an inoffice initial consultation with a choice of office or phone follow-ups to assist clients with their nutritional care plans. She offers hormonal testing and accepts Medicare and most major insurance.
