Case
Name: Mary, 44, lose 10 kg in two month.
I was fairly obese. Doing exercises seem hard to me. Therefore I chose Chinese traditional medicines for weight loss, which I think it are safe. On last seeing my mom, she looked at me incredibly and asked: “Is this my Mary?” “Mom, it’s your Mary!” I yelled. “Oh, Oh, you are really my Mary…”, reading mom’s response, I knew how successful my weight loss was.
Principle of weight loss
Chinese traditional medicine says obesity relates to spiritual deficiency, phlegm, and moisture. Some experts agree that obesity will cause phlegm and moisture and that obese people are in poor in health. The Chinese traditional medicines will help the body fight against the phlegm and moisture in the body, conditioning inner organs and endocrine system, excrete the water, waste of metabolism and toxins out of the body to accelerate the metabolism and convert excessive fat into energy. They will recover the metabolism in the body to achieve the weight loss goals. Although the Chinese traditional medicines are mild, they also are medicines. So never think that the Chinese medicine is always safe and always be cautious if the weight loss medicine contains Chinese traditional medicines.
