Q. I'm currently managing my diet with chicken breast meal prep—how can a Korean medicine clinic help me?

I remember following trendy diets when I was younger and feeling dizzy—even as a professional, I made mistakes. The key isn't the chicken breast itself, but whether your body absorbs and uses it as energy. First, we check for Spleen Qi Deficiency (비허, spleen weakness), which can cause bloating and heaviness if forced with high protein. Next, we address Phlegm-fluid (담음, stagnant waste that slows metabolism) using herbs to clear blockages. Finally, we treat Blood Stasis (어혈, poor circulation) to improve blood flow and promote fat loss. In practice: 1) pulse diagnosis and consultation to assess digestive capacity and constitution, 2) strengthen the Spleen to optimize nutrient uptake, 3) prescribe herbs to remove Phlegm-fluid and activate metabolism, 4) resolve Blood Stasis for better circulation and elimination, and 5) adjust your diet realistically to your daily life. My goal is not to starve you, but to create an environment where your body efficiently burns fuel—let's work together toward a healthy outcome.
