Where clinical experience meets modern evidence.

An Integrative, Evidence-Based Approach

For more than 25 years, Susan Gail Farkas has worked at the intersection of Traditional Chinese Medicine, clinical nutrition, and lifestyle medicine, combining traditional wisdom with evolving evidence and modern biomarkers.

Her approach is integrative, not alternative. She works alongside conventional medical care, connecting information that can often remain fragmented—symptoms, lab results, medications, nutrition, metabolic health, microbiome, sleep, movement, and lifestyle—to understand the whole picture.

Susan translates that complexity into a clear, personalized and actionable strategy, with ongoing follow-up to measure progress and adapt as the body changes.

Trained in Israel with clinical rotations at Hangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in China, Susan is also the author of The Health~Giving Cookbook, featuring 100 anti-inflammatory recipes designed to bring these principles into everyday life.

Connecting what healthcare often sees separately, Susan’s role is not to replace your physicians, but to work alongside them—translating fragmented information into a strategy for the whole person.

Because your labs, nutrition, medications, metabolism, microbiome and lifestyle are not separate stories. They are one.

The Clinical Intelligence Approach

Evidence-based integrative health strategies for complex wellness goals.

Health Ownership Framework

You are the CEO of your health. Know your body. Know your numbers. Track what changes.

The Health Ownership Framework is a simple way to think about your care over time: assess where you are, prioritize what matters most, act on a focused plan, track what changes, and then reassess together.

Assess
Prioritize
Act
Track
Reassess

Together, we use this framework to turn information into a clear, repeatable way of caring for your health.

The volume of health information online was overwhelming. Working with Susan gave me a focused plan based on my specific biology rather than general advice.
