The difficulty of repeated dieting, is it simply a matter of willpower?

If you cannot identify the fundamental reasons why you are not losing weight easily, your diet may not go smoothly.

Many places focus solely on weight numbers and recommend standardized appetite suppressants.

However, difficulty in changing weight even when reducing intake may not be solely a matter of willpower.

It's possible that the brain's stress response, hormones responsible for blood sugar regulation, or the overall metabolic system's balance is disrupted.

At Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic, we meticulously analyze the scientific reasons behind each individual's weight gain, rather than relying on subjective judgment.

With personalized prescriptions that consider the unique characteristics of each patient, we help create a physical environment where healthy weight management is easier.

Feature 1. Identifying the causes of difficulty in weight control using precise examination data

-Glycated Hemoglobin (Blood Sugar, Hormones):

We objectively analyze 'insulin resistance,' which can affect weight management, using numerical data.

-Urine Test (Metabolism, Hydration):

By checking indicators like urinary sugar, ketones, and urine specific gravity, we analyze with data how much current activity contributes to body fat burning.

-OmniFit (Brainwaves, Autonomic Nervous System):

We evaluate stress levels and autonomic nervous system imbalance that can cause 'fake cravings' rather than actual hunger, such as chronic stress or poor sleep quality.

-InBody and Phase Angle (Body Composition and Cellular Health):

We go beyond simply checking the ratio of body fat to muscle mass.

We also meticulously analyze the 'Phase Angle' value, which is an indicator of cell membrane health.

whether excessive weight loss is putting a strain on body cells,

or if only body fat is being effectively consumed in a healthy way at the cellular level.

If an imbalance is identified in the above four areas,

weight management may be difficult with just reduced food intake or exercise alone.

Identifying the core reasons for an individual's weight control issues is an important first step towards sustainable and effective dieting.

Feature 2. Personalized prescriptions to support healthy weight loss

Will suppressing appetite alone lead to effective weight loss?

Excessive appetite suppression can, on the contrary, lead the body to tend to store more fat.

At Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic, we offer 'dietary herbal medicine' that supports body fat burning, and

'1:1 personalized prescriptions' that create a physical environment favorable for weight management based on examination data.

Feature 3. Diet management aimed at long-term maintenance

Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic aims to help patients manage and maintain their weight independently.

We consider the approximately 6-month management period important, as it is necessary for the brain to adapt to the changed weight and maintain the new weight.

During this period, we support patients in reducing medication dependency and developing the autonomy to manage their weight themselves.

This is the direction of healthy and sustainable weight management that Ggeut Korean Medicine Clinic pursues.
