| Description: | HealthyLife Detox Foot Pads draw harmful toxins through the bottom of your feet by using distilled bamboo vinegar. All you do is place the pads on the soles of your feet. As you sleep, the vinegar sucks the evil toxins from all your organs, through your blood stream, until they pass through the bottom of your foot where they are absorbed by the pad. It works on all kinds of contaminants including heavy metals, metabolic waste, microscopic parasites, mucous and even cellulite.
So do these patches really work?
Well, think of facial “patches” or masks. No one questions them. They draw out dirt, oil and chemicals out of our noses, faces and throats. I would venture to guess that if the commercial claimed that it had the same ingredients as a Clearasil Face mask and draws out impurities in the same way no one would question it. I think most of the skeptics and cynics place whole faith in western medicine and label any homeopathic or alternative medicine as bologna. People pay hundreds of dollars to be coated with mud, to sit in mud baths or to have clay rubbed on them, to have body wraps and exfoliating scrubs.
People pay this money to spas and the like because they believe in the processes that detox the body and draw out impurities. Reflexologists know about the healing power of foot detoxification. There are areas in the foot called “crunchies” by reflexologists, basically they are palpable build ups of toxins and urea crystals (also see: gout) and when broken up they cause a rapid flush and detox causing the person to rise in body temperature, sweat and excrete toxins that can actually be smelled. There have been studies done, as Dr. Oz stated on Oprah on 1/8/07, that show that when certain points in the foot are pressed thru accupressure points, parts of the brain light up in a catscan. Western medicine can offer no correlation for this. As Dr. Oz says, Western medicine cannot account for a lot of things. |
