Many people attempt restrictive diets—such as eating only chicken breast—only to experience dizziness and burnout. This is because strict dieting is a battle of willpower, and conventional medications use a 'forced' suppression method. When caloric intake drops abruptly, the body perceives it as an emergency and lowers the basal metabolic rate to conserve energy, which is the primary reason for the 'yo-yo effect' (weight regain). In Traditional Korean Medicine, weight gain is not viewed simply as a result of overeating. Instead, we look at internal obstructions such as 'Dameum' (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention) and 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis) as the root causes. For instance, if a patient suffers from 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, Spleen Deficiency), their digestive and absorptive functions are impaired; consequently, nutrients are not converted into energy but are instead stored as fat. This deficiency often manifests as a feeling of heaviness and chronic swelling. Therefore, TKM weight management does not merely kill the appetite. It first creates an 'optimal environment for weight loss' by clearing out Dameum and Eo-hyeol. We aim to boost metabolism while supporting the body's vital energy (Qi) so the patient doesn't feel depleted. Rather than unconditional endurance, we regulate weight at a pace the body can sustain.
