Standard dietary control is an excellent way to manage nutrition and reduce calories, but it often fails to address the underlying constitutional reasons for weight gain. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we look at why certain individuals are more prone to obesity. For example, when a patient has 'Spleen Deficiency' (Bi-heo), their digestive energy is too weak to convert food into vitality, leading to the accumulation of metabolic waste known as 'Phlegm-fluid' (Dam-eum). Similarly, 'Blood Stasis' (Eo-hyeol) can hinder circulation and cause toxins to build up. This is why some people don't lose weight even when they barely eat. TKM weight loss uses personalized herbal medicine to discharge these wastes and 'wake up' a dormant Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). Unlike ready-made diet products, TKM offers 1:1 tailored prescriptions that focus on constitutional improvement and metabolic normalization. If you have a healthy metabolism, standard dieting may suffice. However, if you find yourself constantly bloated, lethargic, and unable to lose weight despite restriction due to a 'Bi-heo' state, repairing your body's internal 'engine' through TKM is a far more efficient and sustainable path.
