=.= Did they HAVE to throw cellulite into the list? 'sigh' Well, at least it's better than makeing pads for someone's chubby butt crack. That area would already have enough easy proof, as it is.
Kinoki Footpads work over a longer period of time than most of us expect. The reason WHY they work is they are a replacement for when we used to walk freely barefoot, naturally cleansing the body through the skin (our largest breathing organ) of our feet, where all the nerve endings of our bodies are located. Over the 3 months I consistently used them, I found an increasing sense of physical and mental CALM. I was more than satisfied with the results. Thank you Kinoki.

@24601guy Wow. If you think "organic" is "crap" ( and I am not talking about what the USDA says is organic) then you are as misled as the people who you are talking about. Don't BASH what you are misinformed about.
Funny how people/doctors bash the notion of toxins released from the skin, yet it is 100% fact that when you detox (fast, water, diet change, etc), you expell toxins from the liver/body thru the blood, urine, stool, and yup you guessed it..THE SKIN..lol
You know what is hilarious, is that all the comments I have read on this subject, about 80-90% of the people bashing the pads have never tried them...lol
Yet they are interested enough to look up vids, post comments, and research the subject. So you "knew" they were a scam, yet you wasted so much time on them for "no reason"..lol, yea right
I've been using them for a week and all I can tell you is that my tolerance for alcohol has dropped severely! From a 6 pk every other night to 2 beers and I'm done! It's known that sweat releases toxins so even if my feet sweating during the night is what's doing it, it's still doing it.
probably like a placebo effect, like if you give someone a sugar pill but tell them theyre about to be fucked up off some x, then theyre likely to think theyre trippin....the placebo effect..the worlds best drug
Absolute SCAM! There must be a law in USA, that prohibit stupid people to lie on others, show on tv or so on hah! Hey I did invented kinoki vagina pads, honestly it is cheap...30$, and if you order in the next 15min I will gave you second one for free heheheheheheheeheh
i am using the pads right now and i peeked and saw that they are brown. many of you all are saying its due to sweat or w/e (and try distilled water yada yada). how do you explain the pads getting gradually lighter each day(and eventually stay white) if it doesnt work? are you saying that the pads make your feet no longer sweat (hence making the pads stay white)? hmm. please explain
when your feet swet during the night they r absorbed into the pad. That turns te pad brown an also it has an antiperspirant. It is like a layer and it is very hard to take it off. If you clean your feet very powerfully every time before you use the kinoki foot pads, you will see no difference. When the layer is on your foot, it eventually rubs of. In kinoki foot pads' version it is your body taking in more heavy metals crtain japanese pads can absorb metals from your body but these are imitation
If our body really does the detoxification naturally at 100% rate each day, we will never get sick, no diabetes, no hypertension, no need for hospitals, no need for health insurance and there is no need to go to medical school to learn medicines. And McDonalds do not need to sell salads :)
the pad and it turned brown. Then i put my finger there and realized it was sticky. Then the water on my finger dried and it felt a lot more less slippery. It was very hard to move my fingers together. It actually cause you harm by causing irritation to your foot by sealing up your pores and overheating your foot. Also the benefits people are getting are from the placebo effect
Not trying to defend imitation. But there is a phrase "keep your head cool and your feet warm." This method has been found to improve blood circulation nevertheless. As far as turning brown, have you at least seen the real clinical trials of the toxins absorption? There is a place where you can look at this information. As far as sealing up pores and overheating foot, these are completely nonsense. Genuine product has been FDA tested with irritation index 0 which is completely non-irritant.
They release an antiperspirant powder which is like layer. I said "seals up pores" as an expression. And yes they CAN overheat your foot. Also, i didn't say your body detoxifies everything 100%. Your body detoxifies you so that you dont die. Anyway, could you please tell me what exactly you mean by "detoxify"?
detoxifying means helping to remove toxins. not every toxin is reomoved on its own. may toxins get left there and its due to porr eating habits. if you drink more green jucies or fruit juces that alone can detox you body a lot and you will feel better . same with fasting it detoxes you meaning gets the bad stuff out. medication left from childhood in the colon etc.
i know what detoxifying means, i just wanted to know what he thought it meaant and if we had different interpretations of it. and toxins do not get out of your body faster if you fast becuase when you eat, the stuff your body cannot digest is mostly the poop. and in the poop other things go out too. not eating is unhealthy and it will do nothing to "detoxify' you. juices do not get rid of toxins unless they somehow bind to the heavy metals and drag them into your pee or poop, which they do not.
i got the kinoki footpads today. they r fake. The pad heats your foot, and the adheasvie is airtight, and make your foot sweat more. Then it becomes brown because of the sweat. the way it becomes whiter and whiter is that it has this chemical in it that seals your pores and makes you sweat less. It is like a barrier and when you dont use them the socks rub the barrier off, making you think you are getting heavy metals all the time and very quickly. I took distilled water and put 5 drops of it on
If nicotine patches work via skin, why this patch does not work the other way taking all toxins out? All I can say is, beware of imitation patches. Not all patches are made the same. Its so obvious this kinoki is fake imitation of genuine japanese patches. As much as I hate to say this, genuine real pads work. Real pads draw junks out, just as your body spits out urine, stools. I always get real genuine pad because a pad cost less than 60 cents $ is, well, caveat emptor. Be wise and be informed.
I bet those who say these alternative ways to detoxify the body is a scam is living a less healthier life compared to those who uses these alternatives. Just imagine, the anger and hatred that these people who don't believe in such detoxification process have within themselves, compared to the ones who believe in them, who ignores the negative feedback they get. So now tell me, who is healthier and have a good sense of inner being? I think the answer is obvious.
yes, people who dont spend money on stupid shit are healthier because they are not shoving water up their ass and bombarding their stomach with dumb HERBS and shit and are not damaging their intestines with liquid diets. yes, us hateful negative mean people are in fact, healthier
Radical new breed, first of all your school is a joke all you have to do to graduate is walk in. Second of all, even if your skin secretes waste it doesn't secrete abestos, or mercury, or lead. YOu know the real toxins that are intoxicating our body. Third of all the only thing these foot pads so is suck the money out of your wallets.
jlbaro maybe these people need the money sucked out of their wallets kind of like murderers need less handguns and kiddy porn people need less kiddy porn
I am currently on my 2nd night of using the pad. I am saving each one of them and I will buy a 2nd box if need. Then I am going to take the pads to my doctor to be tested in a lab, and also have my physical. That is the only SURE way of knowing it they worked!
So what! Did she have the pads send it and tested to see what caused them to turn brown???? That doesnt prove they are fake! it just proves that a substance was absorbed into the pad!
When you rid the body of toxins the white shows there are no more toxins to come out. It takes about 7 weeks of nightly use to start turning white and dries out. I use them. Foot pads are great!!! Remember the more your body sweats, the more toxins in your body that needs to come out. That is why some people sweat more and some people sweat less. The sweating is the body gettig rid of toxins. If not more toxins...you sweat less. Less toxins, less sweat...hense white pads.
Read the earlier statements before you comment. This is in addition to them. The Skin is the largest organ our bodies have. It is used also for toxin elimination. This is a known fact in the medical world. I do sweat less when I exercise now. Yes, your body uses this to cool down also, but it is also getting rid of toxins in the body. Hense jocks feet STINK. That is toxins coming out of their feet. It's a bath of mixed toxins creating that Chemical bomb stench.
There is more then bacteria on the skin. It's toxins sweating and seeping out through the skin also. I studied Anatomy and Physiology at ITM-Institute of Therapeutic Massage. The skin is the largest organ of the body. One of it's benefits is to secrete waste product through the skin. So you have more then just bacteria to worry about. In Massage then main purpose is to massage the skin and muscle and release toxins from the cells. It's eliminated through urine, fecal and sweat is diluted urine.
...Sheesh! get some knowledge please. You didn't know that sweat is diluted urine??? Bacteria, toxins, water and waste is sweat. Urine is just the consentrated form.
When you rid the body of toxins the white shows there are no more toxins to come out. It takes about 7 weeks of nightly use to start turning white and dries out. I use them. Foot pads are great!!! Remember the more your body sweats, the more toxins in your body that needs to come out. That is why some people sweat more and some people sweat less. The sweating is the body gettig rid of toxins. If not more toxins...you sweat less. Less toxins, less sweat...hense white pads.
Also, I find myself sweating less all over, even when I exercise. Also, my arm pits sweat less and I don't have any more nasty body odor. Toxins that sweat out from under your armpits stink as well as feet stink- feet. The more feet stink-the more toxins that your body has. Oh, and my feet don't stink anymore either. Thanks Kinoki!!! There is so much more these pads do that they don't have enough time to fit it in commercials. I found this out using them.
These lab tests are LIES. Stop feeding into lies. Depopulation plan is in full effct to kill millions. They will always try to debunk anything that works. I have been detoxing with foot pads for over a year. There are many major changes for the better I feel in my body. No more headaches, no more menstrual mood swings-this alone should make every man buy it for their women friends, wives, etc... no more painful menstrual cramps. The chinese have been detoxing this way for over 3000 years.
You should check your facts. The US and Canada has a slight plus in birth to death ratio, which Europe is the complete opposite and Russia downhill fast. Most believe this is due to abortion and premature births, which I would agree (30 percent fatality rate after conception).
Toxic society brings many premature births also. There are also toxins that when ingested makes the chances of a woman having a girl more often then a boy. That was planned too. Males carry the blood line. Children carry the father's blood. This was done to kill the male blood line. I have done my research. Read "Our Toxic World...A Wake Up Call. Chemicals Damage Your Body, Your Brain Behavior and Sex." By Doris J. Rapp, M.D.
Also, I contacted that very news company that reported on foot pads to complain to them about their bogus lab tests.I also gave them my story and my many positive results and much better health. Also, Still waiting to hear back from them.
Media works for the Pharmaceutical companies who are poisoning us. Mews media receive Billions of dollars a year from these companies. Anything that makes you bette, hense don't need Pharma no more is always debunked. Also, their test was only a week long and the signs they got was natural signs you get when your body is detoxing, but they call these signs bad. Detoxing in the first week gives you flu-like signs only because pumping toxins up out of cells to rid body shows your body getting rid.
Skeptics are saying that when water is placed on the pads, the color changed instantly, concluding that its not the toxins that change the color of the pad but simply any liquids will do the trick. I agree but how do one explain the pad didn't change color or lighter after 5 or 6 uses indicating lesser toxins are now being absorbed from the body. You be the judge.
they don't work.. its the placebo effect... im a biochemist it was my job to research these dam things for over a month for a column in mens health... no tests were conclusive that they worked as they say they do... its a complete hoax.. the reason why they let up on turning brown is an iron deficiency.. irons the heaviest of all minerals.. therefore when ur day is moving.. iron circulates and plants at ur feet.. once theres nomore.. the reaction in the pad doesnt happen........ no more brown
Foot pad don't kick start the parasympathetic mode, if that was the case then you'd be better off just taking hot semi-hot water and soaking your feet in it. it's cheaper, sit in a hot tube, go lay out in the sun. take a Saturday and lay on the beach, sleep in one day, relax one weekend and fast(don't eat) the whole weekend, that'll give your liver and all you organs a rest, go on a fruit diet, sit in a sana, that'll get the parasympathetic mode in high gear, not this crap.
It's not that simple.You can get stuck in sympathetic overdrive for multiple reasons like formaldehyde toxicity,mercury toxicity,nutritional deficiencies and many other reasons.You mentioned mercola and his buddies criticizing the pads.I'm quoting stuff from the same article by mercola/klinghardt that you are.Klinghardt said the pads were balancing the autonomic nervous system.
You undoubtedly have not tried these pads. they do work! While I use them, I awake with no pain....when I do not use them, I have constant back and neck pain. Saves going to the chiropractor.
One major factor with back pain (if its not an injury) is dehydration, sleep help with the pain too, stay hydrated, take a nice hot bath, and get plenty of sleep. I PROMISE you, you'll get the same effect or greater.
isn't the sweet, oils, skin cells, and most cells in the body carbon based? So anything carbon based that come in contact makes the thing turn brown, sounds more like a chemical that changes color when exposed to anything.
I never really went by the color changes because I heard that varies from pad to pad.I have had accupuncture done and I thought to myself that I felt a strong accupuncture effect with the pads.
The accupuncture effect was confirmed by klinghardt.I have the utmost respect for Klinghardt and mercola, but what their saying doesn't make sense in this instance.
one evening while washing my face, i had a pad sitting on my bathroom countertop, water had come into contact with the pad, the next morning when i woke up i noticed that the new pad sitting next to my sink had turned brown. I was so relieved to know that this pad had detoxified my bathroom almost overnight, so they just dont only work on feet. The possibilties are endless, tonight I plan to go out and decontaminate Chernobyl. Wish me luck!
why do the pads begin to get lighter and lighter after continuous use. like the first 2 days i used them they were dark brown in the morning... then gradually got lighter and lighter until they were just a weak yellow. please explain. or shut up. either way.
how retarded can you be. i bet they made a million dollars off of this. btw its not rust. theres a brown powder underneath. if u drop a drop of water on it, it turns brown instantly. jesus christ, people are so fukcking stupid. it never ceases to amaze me
This ad is one of the things that keep me off watching "Howard Goodall's Big Bangs" on Ovation TV (besides being pried out of the couch for physical activity in Shapes, a health club) because it mostly pops up at almost every commercial break! Now I'm considering buying the newly-released DVD of that show so my viewing experience would not be MARRED by this infomercial!
placebo effect, I think it's funny how people don't realize it's the vinegar that turns it brown. Still, if you believe they work, you'll feel better.
This is fake. If you buy them, just open one and leave it on a table, and it will turn dark. Theres nothing in it, besides air reaction. That's why they don't turn brown until their exposed to air. So, yes this is fake. Please do not buy it, its not worth it. Studies go against this.
People are stupid. They will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true.
Explanation: Given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. They can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.
The pads are crap. They have an added chemical that turns brown when exposed to water. Their product is not science - it is a scam. If people keep buying into such baloney, it is indicative that they do not know much about science or how the body works.
They will make a fortune off of this garbage until either the FDA or State Attorney Generals' offices shut them down. Suckers will lay down their money for all kinds of quack cures.
You can't always blame the station airing the commercial, a lot of the time your cable company is the one inserting these irresponsible commercials. I think whoever airs this shit should be held responsible.
The "active detoxifying agents" are wood vinegar and green tea. TheMockDock (dot) com has a full article on these things. THEY DON'T WORK, THEY GIVE OFF A BAD SMELL AND YOU'RE WASTING YOUR MONEY!
THESE PRODUCTS WORK!!! Don't listen to the media it's less expensive than a lot of things we take that do not work and harm in other ways. Don't be a follower be a leader and help yourself.
Actually it DOES pull stuff out of your body, but it can from anywhere! But the priblem is is that it is so small! It can only do so much. The problem might be is that you would need a lot!
If you listen carefully to the way the commercial is worded Kinoki doesn't promise to do a damn thing. It basically says the pads "capture" what your body is excreting. In other words, whatever it is your body is excreting is going to come out with or without a pad on your foot!
It's outrageous the FCC would allow Kinoki to advertise such garbage. We have consumer advocacy to protect the public from these kinds of schemes and we the public need to demand they do their job.
Do you think its outrageous that the FCC allows other companys to advertise scams or even commercials on the FDA Approved Detox System....that in studies shows no difference in Kinoki results except for the $3000 difference?
Do you think its outrageous that the FCC allows other companys to advertise scams or even commercials on the FDA Approved Detox System....that in studies shows no difference in Kinoki results except for the $3000 difference?
if its already in the pad then what makes the black stuff come out?? dirt? feet are not naturally that dirty. sweat? not everyones feet sweat during the night.
When its "dry" all you see is the white pad because the fabric is opaque and the powder inside is dry. But it becomes dark when exposed to moisture because the fabric becomes translucent and the powder becomes a dark gluelike substance.
The problem is "ions" are used by our body for virtually every chemical and physical process we do. In order for your heart to beat and muscles to move you need ions to move in and out of the cells to create a charge.
So this product would draw out all ions from the body. Also if you would analyze your sweat down to parts per trillion you would find heavy metals and dangerous chemicals. So this product is bunk.
the marketing of these products is a complete scam, no doubt, however they do have positive effects(for proof you need to read chinese), mainly a two fold action...1)pores in your feet absorb the herbs which are dissolved in bamboo vinegar(which supposedly stimulates liver and kidneys according to TCM)
2)tourmaline (or similar minerals) are warmed from your own body heat and then emit lower energy, longer wavelength infrared, which has been well documented to stimulate blood vessel dilation
The plecebo effect can be very powerfull. A person is told of an outcome, recieves the plecebo, and then testifies to the previous outcome having been realized. I'm all for this pproduct if people who feel "down" get a lift in their lives. But I am concerned with possible problems from continued exposure to what ever chemical is reactive within the pad. not enough is known, from reliable source, to know for certain. I suspect more science will not be forthcoming...
The body detoxifies through the kidneyes and the liver with some secretions via the pores which do not qualify as detoxification (thats why one can smell a drunk, even after they shower). This product might use a litmus paper type reaction to cause a visible effect. It may get its color from a reaction with amonia from sweat which would be overactive in a foot sealed up in a plastic pad over night. If another way for humans to detox were found it would cost a fortune and have FDA approval!
There was just a special on this and other scams no 20/20 this past friday... all it does is turn brown from the moisture generated by sweatin feet. it is impossile to "draw toxins through your skin"... what a huge JOKE. I can't believe people actually buy these things!
Well, this product is a scam but it is incorrect to state that toxins cannot be drawn from the skin. The skin is actually one of the aspects the body uses to release toxins. The release of toxins through the skin is a natural process. This product does nothing special to help remove these toxins from the skin.
what if your feet don't sweat!!!then what will be your excuse for them working? there may be small magnet like material in th pad that absorbs the metallic toxins.
If your feet don't sweat then I doubt it would change color. Most peoples feet will sweat because it has a bandage sealed over a small area which traps the persperation.
I had the magnet and tub version of this done while I was in Japan. I am a very straight edge person, no meat or anything. I also workout regularly. My mom, brother, and sister-in-law all either do drugs, drink often, smoke, are overweight, etc. We all had it done. Their water was brown, chunky, and foamy. Mine was completely clear. It could be a coincidence but, it was very suiting. The arthritus in the hand that held the magnet was escruciating for a week after. ::shrug::
Oh. Crud. Now I'm even chary of watching "Howard Goodall's Choir Works" on OvationTV because this ad keeps popping up in every commercial break! UGH!!! >:(
Theres iron powder in the pads? It leaves a layer behind? A layer of what? What is it that stops your feet from sweating? Showering washes it off? So the people who say it works arent taking showers? Who's to say, maybe it's just a placebo effect. But if it works for them who are you to tell them they are full of shit and it doesnt work.
In conclusion all I can say is the reasons people give as to why these pads dont work are no less stupid than the claims made in the advertisment.
I just read a few reviews of people who bought them and they said that they put a few drops of distilled water on a clean pad and distilled water even turned it turned brown. Sounds like a scam to me lol.
i saw this commercial 1 hour ago and i already know its a scam....there is iron in the pad under the white layer and since it has adhesive on each corner and edge your feet start sweating the sweat oxidizes the iron and makes the white layer wet so you can see it the reason it stops is because it leaves a layer on your foot but when you take a shower it washes off and the cycle continues
its all in your head they say it makes you feel better you see the dark and your mind thinks your healthy

It was very hard to move my fingers together. It actually cause you harm by causing irritation to your foot by sealing up your pores and overheating your foot. Also the benefits people are getting are from the placebo effect
boomguy12345 2 years ago
Not trying to defend imitation. But there is a phrase "keep your head cool and your feet warm." This method has been found to improve blood circulation nevertheless. As far as turning brown, have you at least seen the real clinical trials of the toxins absorption? There is a place where you can look at this information. As far as sealing up pores and overheating foot, these are completely nonsense. Genuine product has been FDA tested with irritation index 0 which is completely non-irritant.
drpeterkaz 2 years ago
They release an antiperspirant powder which is like layer. I said "seals up pores" as an expression. And yes they CAN overheat your foot. Also, i didn't say your body detoxifies everything 100%. Your body detoxifies you so that you dont die. Anyway, could you please tell me what exactly you mean by "detoxify"?
boomguy12345 2 years ago
detoxifying means helping to remove toxins. not every toxin is reomoved on its own. may toxins get left there and its due to porr eating habits. if you drink more green jucies or fruit juces that alone can detox you body a lot and you will feel better . same with fasting it detoxes you meaning gets the bad stuff out. medication left from childhood in the colon etc.
betty4christministry 2 years ago
i know what detoxifying means, i just wanted to know what he thought it meaant and if we had different interpretations of it. and toxins do not get out of your body faster if you fast becuase when you eat, the stuff your body cannot digest is mostly the poop. and in the poop other things go out too. not eating is unhealthy and it will do nothing to "detoxify' you. juices do not get rid of toxins unless they somehow bind to the heavy metals and drag them into your pee or poop, which they do not.
boomguy12345 2 years ago
i got the kinoki footpads today. they r fake. The pad heats your foot, and the adheasvie is airtight, and make your foot sweat more. Then it becomes brown because of the sweat. the way it becomes whiter and whiter is that it has this chemical in it that seals your pores and makes you sweat less. It is like a barrier and when you dont use them the socks rub the barrier off, making you think you are getting heavy metals all the time and very quickly. I took distilled water and put 5 drops of it on
boomguy12345 2 years ago
If nicotine patches work via skin, why this patch does not work the other way taking all toxins out? All I can say is, beware of imitation patches. Not all patches are made the same. Its so obvious this kinoki is fake imitation of genuine japanese patches. As much as I hate to say this, genuine real pads work. Real pads draw junks out, just as your body spits out urine, stools. I always get real genuine pad because a pad cost less than 60 cents $ is, well, caveat emptor. Be wise and be informed.

When you rid the body of toxins the white shows there are no more toxins to come out. It takes about 7 weeks of nightly use to start turning white and dries out. I use them. Foot pads are great!!! Remember the more your body sweats, the more toxins in your body that needs to come out. That is why some people sweat more and some people sweat less. The sweating is the body gettig rid of toxins. If not more toxins...you sweat less. Less toxins, less sweat...hense white pads.

Read the earlier statements before you comment. This is in addition to them. The Skin is the largest organ our bodies have. It is used also for toxin elimination. This is a known fact in the medical world. I do sweat less when I exercise now. Yes, your body uses this to cool down also, but it is also getting rid of toxins in the body. Hense jocks feet STINK. That is toxins coming out of their feet. It's a bath of mixed toxins creating that Chemical bomb stench.

There is more then bacteria on the skin. It's toxins sweating and seeping out through the skin also. I studied Anatomy and Physiology at ITM-Institute of Therapeutic Massage. The skin is the largest organ of the body. One of it's benefits is to secrete waste product through the skin. So you have more then just bacteria to worry about. In Massage then main purpose is to massage the skin and muscle and release toxins from the cells. It's eliminated through urine, fecal and sweat is diluted urine.

Also, I find myself sweating less all over, even when I exercise. Also, my arm pits sweat less and I don't have any more nasty body odor. Toxins that sweat out from under your armpits stink as well as feet stink- feet. The more feet stink-the more toxins that your body has. Oh, and my feet don't stink anymore either. Thanks Kinoki!!! There is so much more these pads do that they don't have enough time to fit it in commercials. I found this out using them.

I seriously doubt I would buy anything from a company that misspells the word "alcohol" multiple times in their commercial.
Also, how exactly can it remove cellulite? Cellulite isn't a substance - it's a dimpling of the skin on certain parts of the body.
As for the pad turning brown, there's a chemical on the pad that reacts with water to cause a color change. Try it.

Media works for the Pharmaceutical companies who are poisoning us. Mews media receive Billions of dollars a year from these companies. Anything that makes you bette, hense don't need Pharma no more is always debunked. Also, their test was only a week long and the signs they got was natural signs you get when your body is detoxing, but they call these signs bad. Detoxing in the first week gives you flu-like signs only because pumping toxins up out of cells to rid body shows your body getting rid.

Skeptics are saying that when water is placed on the pads, the color changed instantly, concluding that its not the toxins that change the color of the pad but simply any liquids will do the trick. I agree but how do one explain the pad didn't change color or lighter after 5 or 6 uses indicating lesser toxins are now being absorbed from the body. You be the judge.

Foot pad don't kick start the parasympathetic mode, if that was the case then you'd be better off just taking hot semi-hot water and soaking your feet in it. it's cheaper, sit in a hot tube, go lay out in the sun. take a Saturday and lay on the beach, sleep in one day, relax one weekend and fast(don't eat) the whole weekend, that'll give your liver and all you organs a rest, go on a fruit diet, sit in a sana, that'll get the parasympathetic mode in high gear, not this crap.

The problem is "ions" are used by our body for virtually every chemical and physical process we do. In order for your heart to beat and muscles to move you need ions to move in and out of the cells to create a charge.
So this product would draw out all ions from the body. Also if you would analyze your sweat down to parts per trillion you would find heavy metals and dangerous chemicals. So this product is bunk.
LukeL007 3 years ago
the marketing of these products is a complete scam, no doubt, however they do have positive effects(for proof you need to read chinese), mainly a two fold action...1)pores in your feet absorb the herbs which are dissolved in bamboo vinegar(which supposedly stimulates liver and kidneys according to TCM)
2)tourmaline (or similar minerals) are warmed from your own body heat and then emit lower energy, longer wavelength infrared, which has been well documented to stimulate blood vessel dilation

The plecebo effect can be very powerfull. A person is told of an outcome, recieves the plecebo, and then testifies to the previous outcome having been realized. I'm all for this pproduct if people who feel "down" get a lift in their lives. But I am concerned with possible problems from continued exposure to what ever chemical is reactive within the pad. not enough is known, from reliable source, to know for certain. I suspect more science will not be forthcoming...

The body detoxifies through the kidneyes and the liver with some secretions via the pores which do not qualify as detoxification (thats why one can smell a drunk, even after they shower). This product might use a litmus paper type reaction to cause a visible effect. It may get its color from a reaction with amonia from sweat which would be overactive in a foot sealed up in a plastic pad over night. If another way for humans to detox were found it would cost a fortune and have FDA approval!

Well, this product is a scam but it is incorrect to state that toxins cannot be drawn from the skin. The skin is actually one of the aspects the body uses to release toxins.

i saw this commercial 1 hour ago and i already know its a scam....there is iron in the pad under the white layer and since it has adhesive on each corner and edge your feet start sweating the sweat oxidizes the iron and makes the white layer wet so you can see it the reason it stops is because it leaves a layer on your foot but when you take a shower it washes off and the cycle continues
its all in your head they say it makes you feel better you see the dark and your mind thinks your healthy

Wow what a scam. Anyone about to buy these should do a little research first on what the body already does to remove toxins.
