Q. I'm eating healthy meals like tofu gratin for my diet; how does the clinic provide dietary guidance?

A.

Rather than simply restricting calories or adhering to a specific diet, it is crucial to first assess your digestive capacity. Even healthy ingredients like tofu can burden the body if your digestion is weak. We recommend a step-by-step approach, selecting ingredients based on your current metabolic efficiency.

📝 Detailed Answer

Many people struggle with bloating when following trendy 'health foods' because a diet that works for one person may not be suitable for another. At Baekrokdam Korean Medicine Clinic, we guide your diet through the following systematic approach to minimize trial and error: First, we assess your digestive power, specifically checking for 'Bi-heo' (Spleen Deficiency). If your digestive function is weak, even high-protein foods like tofu may not be absorbed properly, potentially leaving metabolic waste in the body. Next, we focus on removing 'Dam-eum' (phlegm-fluid retention). If waste products are stagnant in the body, it is more important to 'clear out' the system through light cooking methods to awaken your metabolism rather than insisting on a heavy diet. We also carefully examine 'Eo-hyeol' (blood stasis). When blood circulation is stagnant, nutrients from healthy foods cannot reach the peripheral cells effectively. Combining a diet with prescriptions that improve circulation is essential to maximize dietary efficiency. Once your internal condition is stabilized, you can fully utilize nutrient-dense meals like tofu gratin. This ensures you maintain a healthy body without the 'yo-yo' effect. Ultimately, the correct diet depends on your current physiological state, so we recommend visiting the clinic to check your constitution and metabolic capacity.
