Q. I have an important event coming up and want to try an intensive 2-week diet. What approach do you recommend from a Korean Medicine perspective?
For short-term intensive weight loss, herbal prescriptions tailored to your specific constitution and metabolic state are most effective. These prescriptions facilitate weight loss by suppressing appetite while simultaneously boosting energy expenditure. However, you should be aware of potential side effects such as palpitations or insomnia depending on your body type. Since two weeks serves as the foundational stage for improving your constitution, obtaining a personalized prescription is the most vital step.
