I’ve decided to start a diet and I'm feeling a bit impatient. How soon can I receive the herbal medicine after applying? Also, how many months do I usually need to take it?

I completely understand that feeling of urgency; I’ve also had many times where I wished the weight would just disappear the day after I started a diet. Generally, it takes about 2 to 3 business days to receive your medicine after the consultation. We don't simply provide pre-made medicine; we must take the time to carefully select and decoct herbs that perfectly match your current physical condition. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we identify 'metabolic waste' such as Phlegm-fluid (Dameum, 痰飮) and Blood Stasis (Eohyeol, 瘀血)—often caused by Spleen Deficiency (Biheo, 脾虛, weak digestive function)—as the primary culprits of obesity. Clearing out this 'internal trash' and restarting a stalled metabolic engine requires a minimum amount of physical time. The first month is the adaptation phase, focusing on discharging Phlegm-fluid while tonifying (Bo, 補) your energy so you feel vibrant even with reduced food intake. The second month is the active weight loss phase, where we focus on burning body fat. Finally, the third month is the stabilization phase, allowing your brain to recognize the reduced weight as your new 'normal' (set-point). I’ve personally tried rushing through a diet in a month before, only to realize it wasn't effective. Stability is best achieved when you complete a full 3-month cycle, which aligns with the body's cellular turnover period. Let go of the impatience and trust that this is a precious time to detoxify and reclaim your health. Let’s start this journey together with a relaxed mind.
