NUTRITION RESPONSE TESTING PRACTITIONER - TARA SCARINGI - MS, PA-C, ATC, CSCS

About Tara Scaringi

I’ve always had a passion for helping people better their lives. I completed my undergraduate degree in Athletic Training at SUNY Cortland in 2002 and an MS in Exercise Science in 2004. I worked with both the football and lacrosse teams. My knowledge on nutrition was slim, even after two degrees in fitness.

I completed an MS degree at Daemen College in Physician Assistant studies in 2009, graduating with high hopes of educating people on living a healthy lifestyle, avoiding chronic disease, and minimizing, or even eliminating their medications. Convincing people to choose a healthy lifestyle was no easy task. Unfortunately, most wanted the quick answer, the medicine that would make their symptoms disappear. I was not comfortable with masking symptoms, and wanted to get to the cause.
