Q Are there specific foods I should avoid while taking Haedokhwan?
A While taking Haedokhwan, reducing greasy, spicy food, alcohol, and processed/instant food will make the effect much more noticeable. Conversely, eating raw vegetables and fruit and drinking plenty of water helps eliminate intestinal waste and strengthens Haedokhwan's action.
Detailed Answer
High-fat, high-sugar food and excessive alcohol increase the toxins your liver must process, lowering detox efficiency — essentially refilling the toxins that Haedokhwan is trying to clear from your bowels. Drink at least 1.5 liters of water a day for smooth elimination.
Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective
Treatment can proceed even without a perfect diet, but reducing irritants just during the period you take Haedokhwan noticeably speeds up results. Dongjedang provides an easy-to-follow dietary guide alongside your treatment.
