In our clinic, we often see patients in their 30s and 40s who experience extreme fatigue and dizziness after using Western medical weight-loss aids like Saxenda. Having personally struggled with the exhaustion of extreme fasting in the past, I deeply empathize with this struggle. Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) focuses on 'why the weight isn't dropping' rather than simply 'eating less.' Metabolic slowdown often occurs due to the accumulation of Phlegm-Fluid (Dam-eum, 痰飮) or Blood Stasis (Eo-hyeol, 瘀血). If one restricts their diet while suffering from Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛), it leads to severe energy depletion and an increased risk of the yo-yo effect. During remote consultations, we meticulously screen for these imbalances. Patients respond differently: some experience significant appetite suppression, while others see more success in reducing edema and detoxifying the body. The key is not taking a 'popular' medicine, but correcting your specific internal imbalance. When you approach weight loss by understanding your body's current state, it ceases to be a painful chore and becomes a process of recovering overall health.
