What sequence does a clinic use when regain repeats after a trendy diet?
The source describes four stages: clear waste and circulation, adapt appetite and the stomach, activate metabolism, then settle constitution and maintain. Stages and responses vary individually.
First, review retained phlegm-fluid and blood stasis and circulation rather than cutting meals automatically. This is the clearing stage that assesses the body’s current flow.
Second, check weak digestion and stomach status, lower stomach heat, and help adaptation to smaller portions and satiety. Third, review qi-blood circulation and basal metabolism, adjusting herbs and lifestyle together.
Finally, check the body’s adaptation so reduced weight and eating habits remain. Four stages cannot guarantee prevention of regain or the same result; share repeated patterns and medications with a clinician.
