Many people wonder about different administration methods based on constitution. Initially, I thought it was simply a matter of mixing with water, but I learned that timing and method greatly affect efficacy. Constitutions can be classified into Spleen Deficiency (脾虛), Blood Stasis (瘀血), and Phlegm-Fluid (痰飮), each with different absorption patterns. For Spleen Deficiency (weakened spleen function leading to poor nutrient absorption), taking the herbal medicine with warm water about 30 minutes after meals aids digestion and enhances absorption. For Blood Stasis (stagnant or blocked blood), taking it 30 minutes before meals promotes blood circulation more effectively. For Phlegm-Fluid (accumulation of excess fluids and metabolic waste), taking it on an empty stomach in the morning helps eliminate dampness (濕) and activate metabolism. However, these are general guidelines; actual adjustments depend on your current condition and the specific herbal formula. For example, those with sensitive stomachs may take it after meals, while those with excess heat may take it before meals. Most importantly, accurate diagnosis and prescription are essential. When consulting a Korean medicine doctor, provide detailed information about your digestion, bowel movements, sleep patterns, etc., for a more tailored approach.
