Why is it hard?
Why is it hard for this body to lose weight?
Diet plays a big part
The Korean diet tends to be high in carbohydrates. Without changing your diet, it is hard to raise the efficiency of weight loss.
The limits of extreme restriction
Cutting out rice entirely is a burden on the body and hard to keep up. You need to reduce within a reasonable range.
If this sounds like you
Do any of these sound familiar?
- You were told at a health checkup that you have prediabetes.
- You are eating less, yet neither your weight nor your blood sugar changes.
- When you cut out rice, noodles, and bread, it leads to bingeing.
- You take diabetes medicine and do not know whether you can take herbal medicine with it.
- You worry about regaining weight if you stop Wegovy or Mounjaro.
Miple's prescription
How a Miple prescription works
- Checking your medicationWe first check the name and dose of your diabetes medicine and whether you use insulin or GLP-1 injections. We also look at your recent blood sugar test results.
- Meal planningWe reduce carbohydrates within a set range, choosing good-quality ones. We do not cut them out to an extreme.
- Stage-by-stage prescriptionWe start at the right stage of MYCUT's 7 stages and adjust each month. You take it twice a day, morning and afternoon.
- Keep your existing careDo not stop or reduce your diabetes medicine on your own. Adjustments should be made with your attending doctor.
Diet and lifestyle tips
Try this at home
- Cut back on white rice, flour, and sugar, and choose good carbohydrates such as brown rice and vegetables.
- Sugar hides in sauces, dressings, and fruit juice too. Check the ingredient label.
- Sweet potatoes, sweet pumpkin, fruit, and honey are also carbohydrates. Even when healthy, set the amount.
- Eating protein with every meal leaves you less hungry.
- If you bring photos of your meals for 2–3 days, we will find the gaps together.

Consultation process
How your care proceeds
Adjusting and finding your stage
We check your medicines and start at a low stage. We adjust the diet in stages rather than changing it all at once.
Monthly body composition check · stage adjustment
Each month we check your body composition and adjust your diet and prescription stage together.
Months 3–6, lowering stages gradually
Over 3–6 months we gradually step the stages down and review the diet that has settled in.
This describes the care process. The pace and results of weight loss vary from person to person.
Why Miple
Why the prescription is different
Made in-house by the director
The head doctor makes it in person in the in-house pill-making room. We can adjust the herbs and stage right away to fit your body.
7 stages · adjusted monthly
MYCUT is divided into 7 stages. We look at your condition each month and change the stage.
The head doctor, all the way
Since 2007, the head doctor personally handles consultation, prescription, preparation, and follow-up.
If you are using Wegovy or MounjaroWe take an approach of activation, not suppression. We also guide post-injection care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Diabetes · Prediabetes: your questions
Can I take it together with diabetes medicine?
It depends on the type of medicine. If you tell us the name and dose, we check and then prescribe.
Can it help with prediabetes too?
It is not a prescription for managing blood sugar; it is a diet prescription and meal plan. Results may vary from person to person.
Can I get a consultation if I'm using injections?
Please be sure to tell us before the consultation. The rule is to talk to your prescribing doctor first.
Do I have to cut out rice completely?
No. Cutting it out to an extreme is a burden, so our guide is to reduce good-quality carbohydrates to within 50% of total calories.
Can I do intermittent fasting?
If you use diabetes medicine or injections, please talk to your attending doctor first. Even then, what you eat during mealtimes matters more.
