Many people attempt indiscriminate fasting, which often leads to lethargy and severe yo-yo effects. Because the underlying reason for weight gain differs for every individual, the approach to weight loss must also be personalized. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we follow these specific steps: 1. Constitution and Status Diagnosis: We assess the accumulation of waste products in the body. Specifically, we evaluate the levels of Blood Stasis (Eohyeol/瘀血), where blood flow is stagnant, and Phlegm-Fluid (Dameum/痰飮), which refers to the buildup of unnecessary fluids and metabolic waste. 2. Normalization of Metabolic Function: We check for Spleen Deficiency (Biheo/脾虛), a state where impaired digestive capacity prevents efficient energy production. If the Spleen function is weak, nutrients are more likely to be stored as fat or manifest as edema. We prioritize restoring this function first. 3. Customized Prescription and Regulation: Herbal formulas are composed based on whether your constitution is predominantly 'hot' or 'cold.' Instead of forcing starvation, we 'flip the metabolic switch' to encourage the body to utilize energy spontaneously. 4. Lifestyle Correction: We provide guidance on diet and activity levels tailored to your constitution. Rather than excessive exercise, it is crucial to gradually adjust activity to a level your body can sustainably handle. The core objective is to restore the body's internal balance, which is the most effective way to minimize the risk of weight regain.
