I want to lower my body fat percentage. What is the specific process for this at a Korean medicine clinic?

Weight loss is not just about eating less; it begins with clearing accumulated metabolic waste. First, we analyze your constitution to assess your current state. Next, we eliminate 'Dam-eum' (phlegm-fluid) and 'Eo-hyeol' (blood stasis) that hinder metabolism. Finally, we prescribe customized herbal medicine to reduce body fat while preserving muscle mass, followed by dietary guidance to prevent the yo-yo effect.

Many men attempt extreme fasting, only to find that they lose muscle mass and their basal metabolic rate plummets, leaving them exhausted without significant fat loss. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we take a systematic approach to ensure a healthy transformation: 1. Analyzing Constitution and Metabolism: We identify why your body is retaining fat. We specifically check for 'Bi-heo' (Spleen Deficiency), a state where weakened spleen function leads to poor digestion and inefficient nutrient absorption. 2. Clearing Internal Waste: Before targeting fat, we must clear 'Dam-eum' (abnormal fluid accumulation) and 'Eo-hyeol' (stagnant blood). Think of this as unclogging a drain; if the metabolic pathways are blocked, simply reducing caloric intake will not yield results. 3. Activating Metabolism with Customized Herbal Medicine: Rather than forced starvation, we use tailor-made herbal formulas to stimulate the body's natural energy expenditure. The core focus here is maximizing fat loss while minimizing muscle loss. 4. Refining Lifestyle Patterns: We work together to manage 'fake hunger' caused by work-related stress and late-night eating habits. Our goal is not a restrictive, perfect diet, but a sustainable method you can maintain long-term. By following these steps, your body can adapt without shock, allowing you to lower your body fat percentage healthily and sustainably.
