Q I once gained some weight but lost it all again with one stressful event. How can I maintain it?
A Even if you raise your weight temporarily, if stomach function itself is weak, you lose it again with a little stress. You must also raise the stomach's baseline stamina to maintain a stable weight that doesn't waver.
Detailed Answer
Thin people often eat well temporarily and gain weight, then lose it all again with one bout of stress or overwork. This is because absorption and bowel motility haven't fundamentally recovered—they lack "maintenance power."
Oriental Medicine Clinic Perspective
Oriental medicine treatment focuses not on short-term weight gain but on building an unshakable stomach foundation. By reinforcing the weakened spleen-stomach (脳胃) energy, the standard of recovery is creating a stable state where weight doesn't easily drop even with small stress or changes in condition.
