Q. I'm mostly eating chicken breast and chicken soup for my diet; how does your clinic manage this approach?

Many people rely heavily on high-protein diets like chicken breast, but digestive capacity varies by individual. Some may experience bloating or fatigue despite the healthy choice. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), this is often viewed as 'Spleen Deficiency' (Bi-heo, 脾虛), where the spleen's function is too weak to properly absorb nutrients. At Baekrokdam, we manage your progress through these five steps: 1. Assessing Digestive Power: We first check if your gastrointestinal tract can handle a high-protein diet. Without this foundation, other efforts are ineffective. 2. Clearing Phlegm-Fluid (Dam-eum, 痰飮): We remove accumulated metabolic waste from the body so that energy circulates efficiently, even with the same food intake. 3. Refining the Diet: Rather than mindless restriction, we recommend ingredients tailored to your constitution. For those with a 'cold' internal nature, warm dishes like chicken soup (Dak-gomtang) are far more beneficial. 4. Resolving Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol, 瘀血): By clearing stagnant blood, we ensure that energy and nutrients reach the furthest extremities of your body. 5. Aligning Life Rhythms: We help you design a meal schedule that fits your actual professional life. If a plan isn't realistic, it cannot be maintained. By restoring the 'functions' of the body first, you can manage your weight comfortably without side effects or the yo-yo effect. Instead of struggling alone, let us find the path that best suits your unique body.
