The 0.8 threshold is more than just an aesthetic concern; it is a distress signal from your internal organs, specifically the liver and pancreas. When abdominal fat becomes excessive, 'insulin resistance' develops, causing the body to prioritize storing fat over burning energy. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), this condition is often rooted in Spleen Deficiency (Biheo). A weakened Spleen fails to transform food into vital energy, leaving behind metabolic waste known as Phlegm-fluid (Dameum). As this Phlegm-fluid accumulates in the abdomen and obstructs the circulation of Qi and Blood, it can further lead to Blood Stasis (Eohyeol), where the blood becomes stagnant and impure. Many patients find that simply starving themselves leads to 'normal-weight obesity' (skinny fat), where they lose muscle while the belly remains. To effectively lower this ratio, it is essential to clear the stagnant Phlegm-fluid and Blood Stasis while revitalizing Spleen function to restart your body's metabolic switch. We should carefully evaluate your body's current circulatory state to develop a personalized approach.
