Q. How long does a constitution-improvement diet typically take?

In the past, I’ve experienced the frustration of trying to lose weight through sheer willpower and fasting, only to find myself exhausted and facing a rebound. From that experience, I can tell you that true dieting isn't just about reducing numbers on a scale, but about fundamentally changing your body's internal state. During the first 1 to 2 weeks, the focus is on clearing 'Dameum' (痰飮)—the stagnant, viscous metabolic waste products accumulated in the body. You will likely feel your body becoming lighter during this phase. By the end of the first month, we work on resolving 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血), or blood stasis, to improve overall circulation. The most critical phase occurs between the second and third months. At this stage, we focus on treating 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), a deficiency in the Spleen function that leads to a sluggish metabolism. By enhancing digestive absorption and raising your basal metabolic rate, we build a constitution that is resistant to the 'yo-yo effect.' If you rush the process, your body may react negatively. Taking three months to slowly realign your body's natural rhythm is the safest and wisest approach. For a precise schedule tailored to your specific needs, I recommend visiting the clinic for a professional constitution diagnosis first.
