I'm currently on a diet centered around chicken breast. How does your clinic approach weight loss?

I've actually been there myself—trying a strict diet of just chicken breast and sweet potatoes when I was younger, only to find myself feeling exhausted and dizzy. Having experienced that trial and error, I can tell you that simply eating chicken breast doesn't guarantee efficient weight loss. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we view this through the lens of 'Spleen Deficiency' (Bi-heo, 脾虛). When the Spleen function is weakened, the body cannot properly absorb proteins—no matter how high the quality—which often leads to an accumulation of metabolic waste in the body. Therefore, Baekrokdam approaches weight loss through these stages: 1. Assessing Qi and Blood Circulation: We first identify where 'Phlegm-Fluid' (Dam-eum, 痰飮)—internal metabolic waste—is stagnating. If circulation is blocked, you will feel heavy and sluggish regardless of how little you eat. 2. Activating the Metabolic Switch: We improve the state of Spleen Deficiency to enhance digestive absorption and stabilize your constitution, allowing your basal metabolic rate to rise naturally. 3. Resolving Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol, 瘀血): By clearing blood stasis that hinders circulation, we create an environment where nutrients reach every cell and body fat is burned more effectively. 4. Personalized Dietary Guidance: Chicken breast is not a universal answer. For those with weak digestion, it can actually be a burden on the system. We help you identify the ingredients that best suit your current physical state. Ultimately, the key is not just 'what you eat,' but 'how your body processes it.' Once you understand your body's precise condition, the journey toward weight loss becomes significantly more comfortable and sustainable.
