Are there any side effects associated with GLP-1 receptor agonists like Wegovy (Semaglutide)?

While pharmaceutical weight loss agents offer powerful effects, they can sometimes feel like forcefully flipping a switch when the body isn't ready, leading to adverse reactions. We take a safer, more holistic approach through the following stages: 1. Assessment of Vitality: We first check for 'Bi-heo' (Spleen Deficiency), meaning whether your digestive functions are weakened. If appetite is suppressed while your energy is already low, you will exhaust yourself quickly. 2. Removal of Metabolic Waste: We prioritize clearing 'Dameum' (phlegm-fluid retention) and 'Eohyeol' (blood stasis). Dameum refers to unnecessary fluid buildup, and Eohyeol refers to stagnant blood. Clearing these is essential for smooth metabolism. 3. Customized Prescription: We adjust the composition and concentration of medicinal herbs based on your unique constitution. The core principle is using 'the right medicine for your current body,' not 'the medicine others say is good.' 4. Gradual Adaptation: Rather than starting with a strong dose, we adjust the prescription in stages to match your body's pace of adaptation. During my own studies, I went through some trial and error by being overly ambitious, so I know exactly how dangerous 'blindly enduring' a diet can be. From a TKM perspective, weight loss is not just about losing kilograms, but about restoring the broken balance of the body. When you visit the clinic, let's carefully address the discomforts you are currently experiencing together.
