At Integrated Health NYC, we believe in a science-driven, personalized approach to wellness—one that targets the root causes of health imbalances rather than just managing symptoms. Orthomolecular medicine is a key part of this philosophy, focusing on restoring optimal health through precise, therapeutic levels of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other essential nutrients.

By integrating orthomolecular nutrition with advanced diagnostic testing—including food sensitivity panels and micronutrient analysis—we can develop targeted, evidence-based interventions that help rebalance the body, optimize cellular function, and support long-term vitality.

What is Orthomolecular Medicine?

The term “orthomolecular” means “correct molecules”, referring to the concept that the body functions best when it has the right balance of essential nutrients. Unlike conventional medicine, which often relies on pharmaceutical intervention, orthomolecular medicine focuses on supplying the body with the precise nutrients it needs for healing, prevention, and optimal function.

Developed by two-time Nobel Laureate Dr. Linus Pauling, this approach is rooted in biochemistry, molecular biology, and nutrition science. It recognizes that nutritional imbalances, deficiencies, and toxicity can contribute to chronic health issues, and correcting these imbalances at a molecular level can support the body’s natural ability to heal and thrive.

How Orthomolecular Medicine Supports Healing

At Integrated Health NYC, we use orthomolecular principles to help address a wide range of health concerns, including:

• Nutrient Deficiencies & Cellular Imbalances – Correcting deficiencies detected through micronutrient testing

• Food Sensitivities & Digestive Issues – Supporting gut healing and reducing inflammation after food sensitivity testing

• Hormonal Imbalances & Metabolic Dysfunction – Optimizing thyroid, adrenal, and metabolic function through targeted nutrition

• Chronic Inflammation & Autoimmune Support – Using high-dose antioxidants, omega-3s, and anti-inflammatory nutrients

• Brain Health & Cognitive Function – Improving mental clarity, mood, and memory with neuroprotective compounds

• Detoxification & Liver Support – Enhancing the body's ability to eliminate toxins and process nutrients efficiently

• Immune System Strengthening – Supporting immune resilience with orthomolecular strategies

The Role of Blood Testing in Personalized Orthomolecular Therapy

One of the core pillars of our practice is precision-based nutrition—which means we never guess when it comes to your health. Before recommending any orthomolecular interventions, we use comprehensive blood testing to assess nutrient levels, food sensitivities, and metabolic function, ensuring that every recommendation is based on real data, not assumptions.

By integrating blood testing with orthomolecular medicine, we can:

• Identify Deficiencies & Imbalances – Using micronutrient testing, we pinpoint specific nutrient deficiencies affecting your energy, metabolism, immune health, and cognitive function.

• Address Inflammatory Triggers – Our food sensitivity testing reveals potential dietary triggers causing inflammation, digestive distress, or immune dysregulation.

• Create a Precise, Personalized Plan – Based on your lab results, we develop a customized orthomolecular protocol using high-quality, research-backed supplements and tailored nutrition strategies.

• Enhance Nutrient Absorption & Utilization – With orthomolecular interventions, we focus not just on what nutrients you need, but also on how well your body absorbs and utilizes them, ensuring lasting benefits.
