Detox Foot Patches - yay or nay?!


Question: Detox Foot Patches - yay or nay!?
What do you think of those Detox Foot Patches!?

The idea is that you stick patches on your feet and wear them while you sleep, and that they draw out the toxins from your body, and when you wake up in the morning the patches are grey/brown/black from all the toxins that they've pulled from your body!.

You continue to use them every night (of course, fresh ones every night) until they draw out less and less toxins!.

My thoughts are that, okay they obviously contain natural substances in the patches which are supposed to draw the toxins out, but they also contain vinegar!. How do you know that the colour isn't just from your sweaty feet turning the vinegar black!? Okay so if they get cleaner every night then we need an explanation for why that is!.

I've bought some detox patches and am going to try them out, but I want to know everyone's thoughts!.

Apparently you can also use them on other parts of the body that need detoxing (back etc!.)

Does that mean I can detox my face!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am skeptical obviously though, especially since they are the "As seen on TV" section in Wallgreens and not in the medical section!.

I tried the pads which I bought from a health food store!. I only used it for a week and never saw the patches lighten but I did feel really good that week but that could be due to a change in my diet, vitamins and exercise!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

humans are nothing like plants we dont excrete toxins thorugh our feet!. toxins are naturally removed from the body through urine and feces!. the only thing detox products do is slightly speed up something that the body does naturally!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Detox products and diets are all a myth/con!. Only thing that will detox your body is your internal organs mostly your kidneys!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They are a scam!. I have seen on several shows where they test items and they don't work!. They turn color from the sweat!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this question is asked every single day!. Please research old answers!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nay!. I watched a Dateline NBC that had people that had purchased those pads (called Noni, or something like that)!. They all stated that while the pads in the morning were black, they had a retched smell, and never turned white!. Dateline NBC then performed a chemical test on the pads, to see if toxins were truly being exited from the body, and they found only sweat!. They came to the assumption that whatever is in the pads reacts to the sweat that forms inbetween itself and the bottom of the foot, and it reacts to cause the dark spots!.

I wouldn't spend my money on it, personally!. You know if the infomercial comes on at 2am, it's only a gimmick!! :)

Best of luck to you!Www@Answer-Health@Com
