How exactly do you help with diet shakes or meal plans at your clinic?

Rather than simply telling you to 'eat less,' we meticulously assess your individual digestive capacity and metabolic state to match you with personalized herbal medicine and dietary plans. Since starving yourself or relying solely on shakes can damage your health, we use a step-by-step process to naturally regulate appetite while boosting your overall energy levels.

I completely understand the struggle of extreme fasting; it often leads to dizziness and a significant drop in productivity. That is why at Baekrokdam, we focus on restoring your body's 'baseline.' First, we check for Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛), a condition where weakened digestive functions can make high-protein shakes cause bloating. We then focus on clearing 'Dam-eum' (痰飮), which are stagnant fluid wastes in the body; removing these is essential for restoring a smooth metabolism. We prescribe herbal medicine to help regulate appetite and increase your basal metabolic rate. Instead of the pain of forced restriction, the goal is to bring your body to a state where it feels satisfied with moderate portions. Following this, we guide you through a process of reducing stomach capacity using shakes or meal replacements, then gradually returning to regular meals. During this time, we also address 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血)—stagnant blood circulation—to eliminate edema and swelling. Finally, during the maintenance phase, we ensure a gradual transition back to a daily diet so the body isn't shocked. We work together to preserve muscle mass while focusing on reducing body fat. The key to a successful diet is moving at a pace your body can sustain. Let's find an efficient path together rather than taking an overly strenuous approach.
