Many people try fasting to lose weight, only to experience dizziness and the 'yo-yo effect' where weight returns quickly. We believe the current state of your body is far more important than a number on a scale. At Baengnokdam Clinic, we generally follow this clinical approach: 1. Clearing Metabolic Waste: We first address 'Dameum' (痰飮), which refers to accumulated metabolic waste and stagnant fluids in the body. Clearing these obstructions is essential; if the pathways are blocked, the efficiency of any treatment is diminished. 2. Activating Circulation and Metabolism: Next, we target 'Eohyeol' (瘀血), or blood stasis. By clearing stagnant blood and improving systemic circulation, we ensure energy reaches every part of the body, which naturally helps increase your basal metabolic rate. 3. Strengthening Digestion and Absorption: Patients with 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), or Spleen deficiency, often have poor digestive power, which paradoxically makes them more prone to weight gain even with small intake. We supplement this function to ensure proper nutrient absorption and efficient waste elimination. 4. Constitution-Based Customization: Finally, we adjust the medicinal herbs based on your specific constitution, eating habits, and stress levels. Our goal is not to forcibly suppress your appetite, but to cultivate the body's innate ability to regulate itself. The numbers on a calculator are merely references. The feelings of heaviness or bloating you experience are often more accurate signals of your health. We invite you to visit us and share what concerns you most so we can create a personalized plan together.
