Q. I'm an office worker living in Gwangyang and find it difficult to visit the clinic in person. Who specifically would you recommend for non-face-to-face (telehealth) herbal diet prescriptions?

A.

I truly empathize with the struggle of dieting; I’ve personally experienced dizziness from fasting that affected my work. I highly recommend remote prescriptions for busy office workers or parents who cannot visit in person. It is particularly effective for those who suffered from nausea or tremors caused by Western diet pills, or those who find exercise difficult due to low vitality. A personalized prescription tailored to your specific constitution will provide the support you need.

📝 Detailed Answer

Understanding your current physical state is the first priority because the reasons for weight gain vary for everyone. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we generally categorize candidates into three main groups based on their clinical presentation. First, if you suffer from poor digestion and tend to swell easily even after small meals, we look for 'Spleen Deficiency' (Biheo). When Spleen function is impaired, nutrients are not converted into energy but instead accumulate as waste. For such cases, prescriptions that replenish vital energy (Qi) while promoting circulation are highly effective. Second, if your body constantly feels heavy and exhausted, 'Phlegm-fluid' (Dameum) or 'Blood Stasis' (Eohyeol) are often the culprits. Phlegm-fluid refers to abnormal metabolic waste accumulated in the body, while Blood Stasis is a state where blood circulation is stagnant. These toxins must be discharged first to create a foundation for weight loss. Third, many patients seek TKM after suffering side effects from Western diet medications, such as insomnia or heart palpitations. The greatest advantage of herbal medicine is that we can finely adjust the dosage and ingredients based on an individual's sensitivity and constitution. Even if you are in Gwangyang and cannot visit, our thorough telehealth consultations and medical inquiries ensure a precise prescription. Instead of obsessing over weight loss alone, think of it as restoring your body's lost internal balance.
