Q. If I get a prescription for diet herbal medicine through a remote consultation, when will I receive the medicine?

I completely understand the anticipation and eagerness to start your treatment. While I want to get your medicine to you as quickly as possible, herbal medicine is not a mass-produced product; it requires a specific physical process for preparation. First, during the remote consultation, I meticulously assess your current health status. I don't just look at your weight; I evaluate the levels of Dam-eum (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention that obstructs the flow of Qi and blood) and Eohyeol (瘀血, blood stasis or stagnant blood) within your body. Then we move to the preparation stage. For instance, if you exhibit signs of Bi-heo (脾虛, Spleen deficiency resulting in impaired digestive and energy absorption), the composition of the herbal ingredients must be entirely different. I invest the most effort into this personalized prescription phase. Early in my career, I learned through trial and error that rushing the process can be counterproductive; I now know that 'accuracy' is ultimately the fastest way to achieve results. To give you a detailed timeline: the prescription is finalized within 1–2 days after the consultation, and preparation and shipping take another 2–5 days. In the meantime, I recommend reviewing the dietary guidelines I provide to ensure you start your journey efficiently. Please feel free to reach out with any further questions.
