Many people have tried extreme fasting driven by strong willpower, only to experience dizziness and an inability to function in daily life. Such experiences highlight that the most important factor is finding a 'sustainable method.' The primary advantage of Western pharmaceutical agents is their ability to suppress appetite quickly and powerfully, providing significant support for those who struggle with willpower. However, side effects such as vomiting and nausea are common, and the yo-yo effect upon discontinuing the medication can be quite distressing. Korean Medicine (TKM) diet programs focus on repairing the 'engine of the body.' We remove Eohyeol (瘀血, stagnant blood) and Dameum (痰飮, accumulated waste/phlegm) to ensure a smooth metabolism. For those with Bi-heo (脾虛, deficiency of the Spleen), we enhance the body's ability to regulate digestion and absorption, which helps prevent the yo-yo effect. In exchange, achieving the same dramatic numerical changes as Western medicine typically takes more time. When asked which is better, I always suggest first considering whether your body is in a state that can withstand the treatment. Rushing into weight loss without considering your health can lead to physical depletion and counterproductive results. Since the optimal method varies based on your health status and goals, I encourage you to visit the clinic so we can determine the best path together.
