I understand how draining calorie counting can be; obsessing over numbers often turns eating into a stressor, triggering 'false hunger.' In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we view this through the lens of Spleen Deficiency (Biheo). When Spleen function is impaired, nutrients are not properly converted into energy but instead turn into metabolic waste called Phlegm-fluid (Dameum), which causes heaviness and bloating. To lose weight effectively, we must clear this Phlegm-fluid and improve the circulation of Qi and Blood. We also examine whether Blood Stasis (Eohyeol) is slowing your metabolism. A sustainable diet depends on your unique constitution (Chejil)—some individuals require appetite suppression, while others need to focus on edema (swelling) management. By identifying your specific body type and 'switching on' your metabolic switch, we can achieve results that last without the exhaustion of constant calculation.
