Q. I'm currently focusing on a diet of chicken breast and Vietnamese spring rolls. How does your clinic help with weight loss?

It is impressive that you are managing your diet so diligently. However, sticking too rigidly to a fixed menu often leads to weight loss plateaus or a sudden drop in energy. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we support you through a systematic, step-by-step approach. First, we focus on removing internal waste products such as Dam-eum (痰飮, abnormal fluid accumulation) and Eo-hyeol (瘀血, blood stasis). If the body's 'waste bins' are full, metabolism cannot function efficiently regardless of how healthy your food is. Next, we assess whether you have Bi-heo (脾虛, Spleen deficiency) to restore digestive function; if a high-protein diet like chicken breast doesn't suit your constitution, it can actually cause bloating and heaviness. Furthermore, we use herbal medicine to supplement missing energy, preventing the body from entering 'starvation mode' and supporting your basal metabolic rate to minimize the yo-yo effect. Finally, we will provide a customized dietary guide, analyzing the ingredients in your spring rolls or kimbap to identify what suits your constitution and what should be avoided. Weight loss is not simply about 'eating less,' but about 'burning efficiently.' Once you visit, we will accurately diagnose your current bodily state to guide you toward a healthier goal.
