📝 Detailed Answer
In my clinical experience, patients vary greatly by constitution. For instance, a patient in their 30s with Spleen Deficiency (脾虛, Bi-heo)—characterized by low energy and poor digestion—would struggle with a formula that only suppresses appetite, as it could further deplete their vitality. For such cases, I prescribe formulas that boost energy and accelerate metabolism simultaneously.
Conversely, a patient in their 40s may present with Blood Stasis (瘀血, Eo-hyeol) and Phlegm-Fluid Retention (痰飮, Dam-eum), where the body feels heavy and circulation is blocked. For these individuals, simply eating less is not the solution; the priority is clearing the accumulated metabolic waste from the body. Through years of practice, I have learned that 'weight loss medicine' is not a one-size-fits-all solution, as constitutions and points of stagnation differ for every person.
Telehealth prescriptions are not pre-made, generic products. We carefully analyze your current health status through consultation to customize the herbal composition. However, since reactions vary by constitution, periodic feedback is essential to fine-tune the prescription. I invite you to work with me to identify exactly what is blocking your metabolism and find the right path for your body.
