MADE WHOLE
Connect to your innate ability to restore with a functional nutrition, heart centered “whole-body systems lifestyle” approach.
As an Integrative and Functional Medicine Nutritionist, I help people resolve health conditions, enhance digestive-immune systems and age with vitality. I use personalized functional nutrition and evidenced-based lifestyle interventions.
Aligning mental and physical health is key to overall well-being. Stress has major impact over everything and is a pillar area of restoration that I offer strategies for.
My over three decades of clinical practice, ongoing training and experience; as a Functional Medicine patient (Harvard and Mark Hyman’s Ultra Wellness Center) and provider, continue to nurture my passion and dedication to supporting others - and my path. I work with a wide demographic locally and throughout all areas of the US.

"When I decided to open a functional medicine practice, a systems biology, holistic approach to treatment & prevention of disease, I reached out to Mary Beth, the only functional medicine and nutrition professional in the Capital District, and Saratoga Region, at the time. It has been a pleasure and privilege to collaborate with her. I appreciate Mary Beths commitment to applying powerful principles of FM; and her devotion to her patients welfare. I’m grateful for her willingness to discuss FM and nutrition with me. Her knowledge and skills are a wonderful resource for anyone who desires improvement, or hopes to maintain excellent health." — Anita Burock Stotts, MD, Functional Medicine

You are a Force of Nature …
Lifestyle is the Medicine that creates your force.
Grounded in Functional Nutrition, the science of epigenetics proves lifestyle, behavior and environment influence how genes "express” and thus influence health. Genetically we are 99.9% identical. Outside of a small number of remote areas in the world, genetic “potentials” are more common then realized. Our body’s are “Made Whole” with great capability to restore and thrive. Health and vitality are influenced each time we eat, think, feel and move.
As an “IFNCP”, I am trained to know “What does my client require to improve function, health and recovery, ” and “What does my client need to remove to improve them.” I have been fortunate to create and to continue to offer unique group programs in a variety of settings such as health care, trauma centers, university campuses, private practice, wellness/compounding pharmacies, organic and equine-therapy farms, international yoga and medical spa destinations, historical destinations in my home region and more.

“Healing is not about attaining a state of 100% perfection. This is impossible, not necessary and doesn't exist in this realm. Healing is about connecting to who you are, what your feel and desire for yourself and deserve. It is understanding that you value and deserve Love and Joy in every facet of Life; regardless of the circumstances. This pronounces your faith that you and life are so much more than you have been taught. Health and healing is a process, an experiential journey that moves forward with support from other sources then oneself. Healing delivers you to a coming home to the heart, coming home to source, and embodying and knowing ourselves as natural healers when aliened with sources of life and Divinity. From this place, we share our authentic truth and “medicine”, our gifts with the world and to ourselves.
What the world needs most is for all of us to find healing and express our divine unique essence. This is a vital part of the great tapestry of Life.”

Hi, and thanks for stopping by.
Are you searching for answers to conditions related to fatigue, hormones, depression, anxiety, weight, inflammation, aging, immunity or digestion ? Do you desire to eliminate or avoid medications ?
I too was a functional medicine patient. It was life changing. I was difficult and positively enhanced my life forever. I resolved twenty medical diagnoses that were caused by mercury toxicity. Years later, I restored areas I didn’t know I needed to with the support of functional medicine physicians, horses and “life therapists”.
This led me to train with pioneers in Functional Medicine and Nutrition; and Mind-Body Medicine models emerging at that time in the 1990’s. I introduced Functional Nutrition to the Saratoga, NY region in early 2000 when I returned to the area. I shifted from helping people manage to resolve conditions.
I was in the first graduating class of “The Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA)”, and among the first fifty nutritionist that completed AFMCP with the Institute for Functional Medicine. I initiated integrative health in the first two hospitals I worked in, while offering programs to the community and Williams College.

Health and self-care enhancement - Yoga Instructor
“I’ve seen two other dietitians. Mary Beths’ style and approach built on and complements my yoga science and practice studies as an instructor. Her support made sense, and was a “whole” approach tied to how one lives rather than conventional instruction of meals, grams, diet etc. Her natural process resonated and helped me enhance health and self-care. This personalized lifestyle restoration works, and is not temporary."
