Let me share a few examples to illustrate this. For instance, Patient A, an office worker in their 40s, was highly motivated but suffered from shortness of breath and edema. In such cases, rather than simply suppressing appetite, we first focus on eliminating 'Dameum' (痰飮)—abnormal fluid accumulation resulting from metabolic dysfunction. Clearing these wastes lightens the body and improves overall metabolic efficiency. Conversely, some patients, like Patient B, have a very weak digestive system and experience nausea even with mild medication. In Traditional Korean Medicine, this is viewed as 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), or a deficiency in the Spleen's function. Prescribing potent stimulants to such patients can lead to extreme fatigue and premature discontinuation. Therefore, I recommend a gradual approach that supports Spleen function while allowing the body to adapt. For those with significant lower-body swelling due to poor circulation, we incorporate prescriptions to resolve 'Eohyeol' (瘀血)—stagnant blood that is not flowing properly. Through my experience as a practitioner, I have found that it is not simply about using a 'weight loss drug,' but about the process of 'unblocking the stagnant areas of the body.' Ultimately, weight loss herbal medicine is about identifying what your body is currently struggling with. Rather than blindly fasting or enduring hardship, think of it as a process of finding a healthy balance tailored to your specific constitution. Please feel free to share any concerns; we will find the best solution together.
