Daily Medications–
Are we becoming
too dependent on them?
While conventional medications can be effective for specific organs or symptoms, they may pose risks by causing severe side effects elsewhere in the body.
For example, cholesterol medications may elevate liver levels, potentially leading to diabetes, which can, in turn, result in blood pressure issues.
However, abruptly stopping a medication due to concerns over side effects isn’t safe or advisable.
At CDG Korean Medicine Clinic, we maintain the effectiveness of your current medications while offering a gradual process through customized Korean Medicine treatments that support the body’s natural metabolism.
This enables a step-by-step reduction or minimization of dependency on thos medications.

The best approach is prevention
before things progress beyond the warning signs.
Metabolic disorders may seem to come on suddenly,
but our bodies are constantly giving us subtle warning signals.
More frequent swelling, shifting aches across different parts of the body,
a heightened sense of irritability, and a lingering fatigue– are all signs.
Functional irregularities that don’t yield a diagnosis in tests
may actually be the body’s yellow warning light, signaling us to take action.
We believe in restoring the body to a healthy state when it’s at this boundary.
Addressing the root causes – not just easing temporary symptoms – is key.
Our top priority,
Always a Healthy Body.
While medication can help regulate bodily functions, it can also disrupt the body’s natural balance.
Some medications even have addictive potential, leading to dependency that impacts both physical and mental well-being.
As medication usage rises, this is an issue that requires careful consideration.
Health is always our top priority – a principle we never compromise.
In the marathon toward a body that no longer needs medication,
we’ll be your pacemaker—guiding you every step of the way.
