Q. How can I approach mono-diets, like the chocolate diet, in a healthy way from the perspective of Traditional Korean Medicine?
Sticking to one food disrupts your body's internal balance. In Traditional Korean Medicine, weight loss is viewed not just as calorie restriction, but as a process of clearing 'Phlegm-rheum' (metabolic waste) and strengthening 'Spleen Deficiency' (weakened digestive function). Instead of simply starving yourself, I recommend a three-step approach to restore your body’s natural metabolic state and internal harmony.
