A boy who dreamed of 'helping people'

Since I was young, I vaguely dreamed of becoming someone who helps those who are going through difficulties.

Then one day, a family member had digestive problems and lost weight rapidly. Even after undergoing all sorts of tests at a general hospital, they couldn't find the exact cause and only diagnosed it as psychosomatic. That was when we visited a Korean medicine clinic as a last resort, and seeing them gradually recover, I thought it would be wonderful to become someone who helps people in need through Korean medicine.

Pre-hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes
Starting my diet

Until my late 20s, I thought I had a constitution that didn't gain weight. However, due to an irregular lifestyle and frequent consumption of carbohydrate-heavy instant foods, my weight gradually increased to 85kg.

Then one day, I had a health checkup and I had several problems all at once, including pre-hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and pre-diabetes! Feeling a sense of crisis, I took herbal medicine customized to my body and started a healthy diet, and I have maintained my weight of 70kg without difficulty until now.

Meeting a patient with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

One day, I met a female patient who had been married for 7 years and was in deep depression because she had undergone infertility treatment for 2 years to have a baby, but had not succeeded in giving birth.

She had polycystic ovary syndrome, severe menstrual pain, and irregular menstrual cycles. We focused on weight loss and boosting ovarian function to proceed with treatment. She succeeded in losing 25kg over 6 months, and successfully completed a healthy natural pregnancy and childbirth.

Afterward, she came to the clinic with her baby to thank me, and that moment remains the most memorable to me.

Dieting,
don't try too hard

When you start a diet, I hope you don't do it with too much grim determination. Many people think that 'you must eat less and move more,' so they view dieting only as something difficult and painful.

However, instead of just starving and exercising strenuously, you need an accurate diagnosis of why you gained weight and how you can lose it to make dieting easier and healthier. Only then will your constitution change to one that doesn't gain weight, which helps with weight loss and frees you from further yo-yo effects.
