As fitness becomes popular, people are adopting concepts of muscle gain and fat loss for better body shapes; however, not everyone succeeds in weight loss. Dr. Zhuang Ke-jun emphasizes that mid-weight gain during weight loss is mainly due to the inability to control body fat increase, so monitoring 'body fat percentage' is crucial. Chinese medicine can assist in weight loss by using the right herbs to suppress appetite, enhance metabolism, and eliminate edema, helping address obesity issues. Dietary intake differs for muscle gain and fat loss, focusing on protein, whole foods, and attentive micronutrients. Zhuang also recommends two traditional Chinese herbal teas to promote fat metabolism and aid in weight loss.
