Doctor, would a remote weight loss herbal medicine program work for someone like me? Who do you typically recommend this for?

I have personally experienced the struggle of trying to lose weight through extreme fasting—feeling lightheaded and unable to function in daily life. Because I understand that frustration, I tailor my remote prescriptions based on the patient's specific condition. First, I recommend this for those with low energy efficiency. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), this is often seen as 'Spleen Deficiency' (Bi-heo, 脾虛), where the body fails to absorb and transport nutrients effectively. For these individuals, starvation often leads to edema and further exhaustion; therefore, we use herbal medicine to revitalize the 'body's engine' and boost metabolic function first. Secondly, it is ideal for those with accumulated metabolic waste. When 'Blood Stasis' (Eo-hyeol, 瘀血) or 'Phlegm-Fluid' (Dam-eum, 痰飮)—stagnant fluids and blood—build up, the body feels heavy and circulation slows, making weight loss difficult. In such cases, a prescription to clear these stagnations is essential. To summarize by situation: 1. Those unable to visit due to work or childcare $ ightarrow$ Personalized prescription following a remote consultation. 2. Those suffering from low vitality or yo-yo effects after Western diet pills $ ightarrow$ Herbal medicine focused on constitutional improvement. 3. Those with underlying conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or potential pregnancy $ ightarrow$ Must visit the clinic for a formal face-to-face examination. Ultimately, accurately understanding your body's current state is the most important step. Please feel free to share any concerns, and we will find the best path forward together.
