Q. How long does it take to receive my weight loss herbal medicine if I get a remote prescription?

I completely understand the urgency and the desire to start immediately once you've made the decision. However, herbal medicine is not a mass-produced product; it must be crafted like a 'bespoke suit' based on your individual health status. Weight loss prescriptions in Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) do not simply suppress appetite. The core process involves removing 'Dameum' (痰飮, the accumulation of metabolic waste/phlegm-fluid) and supplementing 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, a deficiency in the digestive system's function). First, we will meticulously check your current physical condition and any underlying diseases through the remote consultation. I will then write the prescription and carefully select and decoct the herbal ingredients. This process generally takes 3 to 5 business days after the prescription is finalized. Please consider the first week as an adaptation period. Between the second and fourth weeks, you will likely feel gradual changes as your metabolic functions become active. Rather than rushing the delivery, receiving a properly formulated medicine that accounts for 'Eohyeol' (瘀血, stagnant blood) is the shortest path to a healthy diet without the yo-yo effect. Please feel free to ask any further questions.
