Many patients worry that herbal diet medicine might be too harsh on the body. However, the core of TKM weight loss is not simply suppressing appetite; it is about addressing the underlying causes that hinder metabolic health. First, we examine symptoms of 'Spleen Deficiency' (Biheo). When the Spleen’s function of transporting nutrients is impaired, metabolic waste known as 'Phlegm-retained fluid' (Dameum) accumulates, turning the body into a constitution that gains weight easily. In this case, a prescription that boosts Qi while activating the metabolism acts as a restorative tonic. Second, for those with internal heat and 'Blood Stasis' (Eohyeol) caused by stress or frequent social dining, inflammation and edema often manifest as stubborn weight. Clearing these circulatory blockages is essential to feeling lighter. Finally, for those sensitive to the stimulants in Western diet pills who have suffered from palpitations or insomnia, TKM offers a gentler alternative. By supporting your foundational strength and adjusting the weight loss pace, we can effectively prevent the 'Yo-yo effect.' I recommend starting with a tele-consultation to accurately identify your type and begin a safe, customized regimen.
