Q. What is the specific difference between taking diet probiotics or supplements and getting a diet treatment at a Korean medicine clinic?
Probiotics and supplements act as 'supporters' that provide general nutritional aid. In contrast, Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) diet programs act as a 'guide' by analyzing your current metabolic state and resolving systemic blockages. There is a fundamental difference between simply consuming beneficial ingredients and receiving a personalized prescription tailored to your specific constitution (Sasang type).
