With weight loss, doing it well matters more than doing it fast. Wanting quick results is natural, but losing weight too rapidly for the body to handle brings muscle loss, a lower basal metabolic rate and rebound.

Q. Can people with hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia diet?

A.

Yes, with carefully selected herbs avoiding contraindications.

📝 Detailed Answer

Patients with metabolic conditions can safely diet with appropriate prescriptions: ① hypertension: avoid Mahwang, use damp-heat-clearing herbs (Bangpungtongseong-san base), ② diabetes: monitor blood sugar (Mahwang affects glucose), use spleen-tonifying herbs, ③ hyperlipidemia: phlegm-eliminating herbs (Iji-tang) safe and beneficial. Coordinated care with internal medicine recommended. Weight loss often improves these conditions, sometimes reducing Western medication dose. Medical history disclosure essential at consultation.
