Many patients start by looking for probiotics or supplements, but the critical factor is whether your body is prepared to utilize them. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we follow a systematic sequence: First, we must clear 'Dameum' (痰飮), which refers to abnormal fluid accumulation and metabolic waste. If the pathways are blocked, forcing high-quality supplements into the system often leads to bloating and digestive discomfort. Next, we focus on recovering digestive and absorptive functions. Many patients suffer from 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), or Spleen Deficiency. When the digestive system is weak, beneficial bacteria are simply excreted without being utilized. Enhancing digestive power to ensure the body is 'ready to receive' is our priority. Furthermore, we resolve 'Eohyeol' (瘀血), or blood stasis, to boost systemic metabolism. This process is essential for nutrients and beneficial bacteria to penetrate the intestinal wall and be effectively delivered to the blood vessels. Once these stages are completed, we integrate customized herbal medicine and management plans tailored to your unique constitution. Based on my own clinical experience and studies, the answer lies in the 'correct order' for your specific body. Rather than following trends, it is important to analyze your current intestinal health and understand why previous methods may not have worked.
