I once tried a trendy diet myself and ended up feeling dizzy within a week, so I understand the struggle of 'trial and error' in dieting. Structured plans like the Denmark diet are effective for quickly correcting eating habits and seeing the numbers on the scale drop in the short term. However, from a Traditional Korean Medicine perspective, such extreme restriction can easily lead to 'Spleen Deficiency' (脾虛), a state where the digestive system's functional energy is weakened. When the Spleen function is compromised, vitality drops and 'Phlegm-fluid' (痰飮)—non-physiological metabolic waste—accumulates more easily. This ultimately lowers your metabolic rate, making your body prone to gaining weight even with minimal food intake later on. A TKM weight loss program focuses on reinforcing vital energy while boosting metabolism based on your specific body constitution. This allows for fat loss while minimizing muscle depletion. While the requirement to take herbal medicine regularly and the initial cost can be a burden, it is a much more sustainable approach. If your priority is simply your weight one week from now, strict dieting might work; however, if you want to maintain health and prevent the yo-yo effect by enhancing your body's fundamental metabolic capacity, I highly recommend TKM treatment.
