Q. I've heard that diet methods differ depending on your constitution. What specific process does this involve?

A.

Simply starving yourself or following popular diets will exhaust your body quickly. I remember trying aggressive methods before and feeling dizzy from it. At Baekrokdam, we first analyze your constitution, then work on improving your metabolic capacity. It's not about quick weight loss—it's about creating an environment where your body naturally finds its balance and regulates weight on its own.

📝 Detailed Answer

Since everyone has a different innate constitution and current physical state, there's no universal diet that works for all. We help through a 4-step process: 1. Constitution and Condition Diagnosis: First, we identify what waste has accumulated in your body. We analyze whether the main issue is瘀血 (yūxuè, stagnant blood—dead blood or debris from poor circulation) or痰飮 (tányǐn, phlegm-fluid accumulation—from improper fluid circulation in the body). 2. Restoring Metabolic Function: If you have脾虛 (píxū, spleen deficiency—weakened spleen function affecting digestion and absorption), drastically eating less can actually be harmful. We first work on supporting spleen and stomach function to activate your metabolic switch. 3. Personalized Prescription and Regulation: Based on your diagnosed constitution, we prescribe herbal medicine that naturally regulates appetite and eliminates excess濕痰 (shītán, damp-phlegm) from the body. During this phase, the focus shifts from 'eating less' to 'building a body that burns efficiently.' 4. Lifestyle Habit Correction: We guide you on foods and activity levels suited to your constitution. Rather than intense exercise, the process involves finding movement that matches your current fitness level. I also made some mistakes while studying, experiencing the gap between theory and practice. Ultimately, I learned that the most important thing is progressing at a pace your body can accept. Let's work through this together and find the most comfortable path for you.
