Many people attempt extreme fasting to improve their health, but this often leads to dizziness and an inability to function in daily life. Experience shows that sheer willpower and deprivation are rarely the correct answer for sustainable health. The primary advantage of a TKM approach to weight loss is the optimization of metabolic rates tailored to an individual's constitution. Instead of focusing solely on weight reduction, TKM works to clear 'Dam-eum' (痰飮, abnormal fluid retention/phlegm) and 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis), which are metabolic wastes that cause the body to feel heavy and sluggish. However, there are potential drawbacks. Depending on your sensitivity to certain medicinal herbs, you may experience palpitations or insomnia. Furthermore, herbal medicine is not a magic cure; it requires the discipline to improve your overall lifestyle habits for lasting results. Ultimately, the recommended method depends on your current physiological state. For instance, if you have 'Bi-heo' (脾虛, Spleen Qi Deficiency), where digestive function is already weak, forced fasting will lead to muscle loss and extreme fatigue rather than healthy fat loss. It is crucial to determine whether your body can withstand a fasting period or if you first need to replenish your vital energy. I encourage you to visit the clinic so we can analyze your constitution and create a personalized plan together.
