My InBody abdominal-fat ratio is very high; how would a Korean-medicine clinic manage it?
First confirm the InBody item and measurement conditions, then review weight, waist, diet, activity, and health. Korean-medicine care adjusts meals, lifestyle, and any needed adjunct according to symptoms and history.
Abdominal-fat ratios can vary with the device and measurement conditions, so one result should not determine the cause. Review weight and waist trends, diet, sleep, activity, swelling or digestive discomfort, history, and medicines together.
From a Korean-medicine perspective, reduced digestion and energy may be interpreted as piheo (脾虛), heaviness and fluid retention as dam-eum (痰飮), and circulatory discomfort as eohyeol (瘀血). This is a pattern for understanding an individual state and does not guarantee less abdominal fat.
Start with food and activity that can be adjusted now, then change the plan as you observe its course. If considering herbal medicine or acupuncture, confirm its purpose, expected effects, adverse effects, and follow-up, and avoid excessive fasting.
