It’s a pleasure to meet you! Even as a practitioner, I’ve experienced the pitfalls of extreme dieting, like starving myself until I felt dizzy. Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) weight loss goes beyond simple calorie restriction; it focuses on fundamentally altering your body's metabolic environment. By clearing out 'Dam-eum' (metabolic waste) and resolving 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis) that hinders circulation, your body becomes far more efficient during exercise. For those with a 'Bi-heo' (Spleen Deficiency) constitution who tend to bloat easily, it is crucial to reinforce vital energy while shedding fat to prevent the yo-yo effect. To be honest, there are drawbacks: because each prescription is customized to the individual, it is more costly than over-the-counter supplements, and some find the taste and scent of the decoction challenging. A 25% body fat percentage is an excellent, healthy goal for women. However, the 'right' way depends on why your body is holding onto fat—whether it's due to a lack of energy or poor circulation. Finding a personalized prescription tailored to your constitution is ultimately the fastest path to your goal.
