Q. How do I take and proceed with a weight loss herbal medicine tailored to my constitution?

Having personally experienced the dizziness and fatigue of extreme fasting, I deeply empathize with the struggle of weight loss. At Baekrokdam, we prioritize 'bodily balance' over unconditional weight reduction through a phased approach. For those struggling with appetite control, we enter the 'Appetite Suppression and Metabolic Acceleration' phase. Here, we use medicinal herbs to eliminate 'Dameum' (痰飮, the accumulation of stagnant fluid and metabolic waste) to improve circulation and induce satiety more quickly. Conversely, for those who experience swelling and fatigue even with minimal intake, a 'Vitality Reinforcement and Edema Removal' phase is necessary. In Traditional Korean Medicine, this is often viewed as 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen/Digestive system). The key is to enhance digestive absorption to generate energy and resolve 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis), creating an internal environment where the body can naturally burn fat. Ultimately, the goal is not simply to 'endure hunger,' but to transform your body into a state capable of efficient metabolism. Since the specific dosage and prescription are determined through pulse diagnosis (Maek-jin) and consultation (Mun-jin) at the clinic, please visit us comfortably so we can design the best plan for you.
