Do you recommend a high-protein diet, such as chicken breast or tandoori chicken, for weight loss?

I once followed a strict chicken-breast-only diet myself, but eventually, I started feeling constantly bloated and fatigued. It turned out that due to 'Bi-heo' (脾虛)—a deficiency in the Spleen function—my body was unable to properly digest the high protein intake. A high-protein diet has clear pros and cons. On the positive side, it helps maintain muscle mass while reducing excess fat intake. Specifically, dishes like tandoori chicken use spices that can stimulate the appetite and aid metabolism. However, for those with weak digestive power, a protein-centric diet can be counterproductive. When food is not fully digested, it can transform into waste products known as 'Dam-eum' (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention). The accumulation of these metabolic wastes often leads to a sensation of heavy limbs and dizziness. Ultimately, 'suitability for the individual' is more important than 'what is generally considered healthy.' A gold-standard diet for one person may be the cause of indigestion for another. If you feel digestive discomfort or unusual fatigue while on this diet, please evaluate your digestive state first. Finding a food combination that aligns with your specific constitution is the key to a healthy, sustainable diet without the yo-yo effect.
