Treatments in Conventional Medicine and Their Limitations
Conventional medicine focuses on supplementing deficient components or correcting numerical values.
BM Korean Internal Medicine Clinic identifies deficiencies through blood tests under a Korean Medicine physician's diagnosis and guides supplement intake if necessary, but focuses on the root causes that supplements alone cannot solve.
- Supplement Therapy: Administration of iron, Vitamin B12, folic acid, etc.
- Hematopoietic Agents & Transfusion: Forcing an increase in red blood cell counts via Erythropoietin (EPO) injections or blood transfusions.
- Treating Underlying Diseases: Identifying bleeding sources or treating bone marrow diseases.
[Limitations]
Iron supplements often cause gastrointestinal side effects like nausea and constipation, and due to low absorption rates, long-term intake is frequently required.
In particular, for Anemia of Chronic Disease, iron supplements are ineffective because the body has sufficient iron but cannot utilize it.
Furthermore, when bone marrow function itself is degraded (geriatric anemia, post-chemotherapy anemia), drug response is poor, leading to a limitation of lifelong dependence on transfusions or injections.
BM's Integrative Solution: Strengthening Absorption and Restoring Hematopoiesis
BM Korean Internal Medicine Clinic does not just inject blood; we restart the factory so your body can make blood again.
- Scientific Analysis: We precisely differentiate whether the cause is iron deficiency, chronic inflammation, or reduced bone marrow function through blood tests (CBC, Ferritin, TIBC, etc.).
- Strengthening Spleen and Stomach (Geonbiwi, 健脾胃): We maximize the absorption rate of nutrients and iron using herbal medicines that strengthen the digestive system. This is the key to improving anemia without gastrointestinal distress.
- Tonifying Kidney to Generate Blood (Bosin-saenghyeol, 補腎生血): We use medicinal herbs like Deer Antler, Angelica Gigas, and Rehmannia to directly stimulate the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow and promote red blood cell production.
- Health Freedom Camp (Life Care): We guide patients towards a diet rich in proteins and minerals essential for blood production and correct sleep habits to prevent excessive energy consumption.
