Detox Pill

Q I have fatty liver. Does the Detox Pill help? Is there any burden on the liver?

The prescribed herbal medicine itself is composed considering liver function, so it does not add extra burden to the liver.

Q I have fatty liver. Can Haedok-hwan help? Is there any burden on the liver?

Q I'm looking for a place I can visit in Dong-gu, Incheon. How often do I need to come in to receive the Detox Pill?

A. The Detox Pill is taken at home after prescription, so you don't need to come in every day. Usually you visit at 2-week to one-month intervals to check bowel condition and weight change and adjust the next prescription.

Q Are there cases where the Detox Pill must never be taken?

A. Pregnant women, those who are underweight or severely anemic, and those right after acute enteritis or colon surgery should not take it. If you have a chronic disease or are taking several medications, the decision must be made only after prior consultation.

Q When and how is the Detox Pill taken? Is it taken every day?

A. The Detox Pill is an aid taken only when bowel movements aren't smooth, not a medication taken constantly. Usually you take the prescribed number with water before bedtime and check the next day's bowel condition to adjust the dose.

Q How long do I need to use the Detox Pill before the gut moves on its own?

A. There is individual variation, but usually a natural bowel cycle begins to form within 2-4 weeks. The Detox Pill plays a supporting role of training the gut, and the goal is a state where, once gut function is restored by constitutional herbal medicine, regular bowel movements are maintained even without the Detox Pill.

Q Does the effect last even after the detox program ends, or does it quickly revert?

A. If you maintain your lifestyle to some degree after the program, the effect persists. Once the constitution itself improves, your body accumulates less even when you eat the same amount as before, but repeating extreme overeating and drinking can cause re-accumulation.

Q Can I exercise while taking the Detox Pill? Should I avoid intense exercise?

A. Light walking and stretching help gut movement and raise detox efficiency. Refrain from vigorous high-intensity exercise for 2-3 hours right after taking the Detox Pill, and resume normal exercise once the bowel reaction has stabilized.

Q You said constitutional herbal medicine, Gamrosu, and the Detox Pill are used together. Does the Detox Pill have its own distinct role?

A. In Dongjedang's 3-axis detox system, constitutional herbal medicine improves the fundamental constitution, Gamrosu handles detox at the blood and cellular level, and the Detox Pill discharges gut waste and blood stasis through the colon route. All three axes must work together to maximize subcutaneous and visceral fat reduction and whole-body detox.

Q Does the Detox Pill actually help with weight loss, or is it just a constipation aid?

A. The Detox Pill is not a constipation aid but a core tool of the weight-loss program. Discharging gut waste reduces toxin reabsorption so the fat-breakdown effect of constitutional herbal medicine works better, and recovered digestion and reduced bloating contribute to real improvements in weight and waist circumference.

Q I have severe constipation and don't pass stool well even when I eat lots of vegetables. How should I combine the Detox Pill with my eating habits?

A. Vegetable and water intake is a good foundation that supports the Detox Pill's action. The Detox Pill is an aid taken when bowel movements aren't smooth; you take dietary fiber and enough water while adjusting the dose according to your bowel condition.

Q I'm taking blood pressure or diabetes medication. Is it okay to use the Detox Pill alongside?

A. In most cases, taking them with a 1-2 hour gap allows concurrent use. However, depending on the type and dose of the chronic-disease medication, adjustment may be needed, so be sure to tell the doctor what you are taking during the consultation for a tailored judgment.

Q What should I bring on my first visit?

A. If you note a list of your current medications, recent health checkup results (blood test, body composition analysis), and your usual bowel pattern (frequency, form, color), your first consultation will be faster and more accurate.

Q If I get diarrhea or abdominal pain after taking the Detox Pill, what should I do? What are the danger signs?

A. Stool mixed with mucus or slightly dark-red stool is a normal detox reaction, so don't be alarmed. However, if you have diarrhea more than 5 times a day, cramping abdominal pain, or bloody stool, stop taking it immediately and contact the clinic.

Q When I'm first prescribed the Detox Pill, in what order does the program proceed?

A. Step 1: After constitutional diagnosis, constitutional herbal medicine, Gamrosu, and the Detox Pill are prescribed. Step 2: 2-3 weeks of initial detox (discharging gut waste, forming a bowel rhythm). Step 3: After re-measuring weight and body composition, the prescription is adjusted. Step 4: Transition to the maintenance and management stage.

Q I'm an office worker who can barely exercise and finds diet control difficult. Can the Detox Pill alone be effective?

A. Rather than the Detox Pill alone, it is far more effective when used together with constitutional herbal medicine and Gamrosu. That said, even without extreme dietary restriction, just minimal adjustments in your current life are enough to feel meaningful change.

Q Besides losing weight, is it true the Detox Pill also helps the skin and fatigue?

A. Yes, improved skin tone and reduced fatigue are changes frequently reported after taking the Detox Pill. When gut toxins are discharged, waste that used to be excreted through the skin decreases so dullness improves, and as energy that was used to process toxins recovers, vitality rises.

Q Are there foods I should especially avoid while taking the Detox Pill?

A. While taking the Detox Pill, reducing greasy and spicy foods, heavy drinking, and instant foods makes it work much better. Conversely, raw vegetables, fruit, and sufficient water intake help discharge gut waste and strengthen the Detox Pill's action.
