Q. I've ruined my health with an extreme diet; how can a Korean medicine clinic help me?

A.

The first priority is recovering your exhausted body. Excessive fasting or reliance on medication often causes metabolic rates to plummet. At Baekrokdam, we take a step-by-step approach: 1. Diagnosing your current health status, 2. Restoring metabolic function, 3. Prescribing customized herbal medicine, and 4. Correcting lifestyle habits. Rather than simply reducing weight, we focus on recreating a bodily environment where weight gain is naturally prevented.

📝 Detailed Answer

I have personal experience with the pitfalls of excessive fasting driven by sheer willpower, so I truly understand the dizziness and profound fatigue you may be feeling. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), the failure or side effects of a diet are not viewed as a 'lack of willpower,' but as a physiological imbalance. We approach recovery through the following stages: 1. Assessing the Baseline and Removing Dam-eum (痰飮): 'Dam-eum' refers to the accumulation of metabolic waste and fluids that hinder circulation. When this builds up, the body feels heavy and prone to swelling, so we first clear these obstructions to open the pathways of circulation. 2. Treating Spleen Deficiency (脾虛) and Boosting Metabolism: When the Spleen function is weakened (Spleen Deficiency), the body cannot convert nutrients into energy efficiently, leading to fat storage. We focus on enhancing digestive and absorptive capacities to naturally increase your basal metabolic rate. 3. Resolving Eohyeol (瘀血) and Optimizing Circulation: We clear 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis), which occurs when blood circulation is stagnant. By resolving this, nutrients are delivered effectively throughout the body, which is crucial for reducing the 'yo-yo effect' and maintaining a healthy weight. 4. Establishing Sustainable Habits: Instead of restrictive deprivation, we help you find a nutritional pattern that suits your specific body type. Ultimately, the core goal is to return your body to a state where it can burn energy on its own. Please don't be discouraged; let's start by analyzing your current condition together.
