Body Purifying Foot Pads

Here's the product we can't stop talking about. Did you know your feet are conduits to the rest of your body? This compelling fact makes these detoxifying natural herbal foot patches truly indispensable. Worn for 8–10 hours while you sleep, they stimulate circulation and remove toxins such as nickel, arsenic and mercury, according to extensive research. Placed on the arch, they go straight to major reflexology organs to maximize the effects.

Body Purifying FootPads de-bunking

While some “de-bunking” websites have shown similar detox pads to be ineffectual, SRC Analytical Lab, an independent and scientific environmental laboratory, has tested ours. SRC’s test results show tremendous effects on the body through thermography graphic sensors, far infrared emittance and brainwave tracking.

Thermography graphic sensors demonstrate circulation through heat response in the body

and far infrared emittance graphs the warming effect of FIR, which stimulates blood circulation.

Both of these examples illustrate that Body Purifying Foot Pads increase circulation and encourage toxic elements to move from the body’s system. A high level of relaxation also occurs during this process. Brainwave research shows how the Alpha brainwaves change as the body calms during the absorption process.

These results along with before-and-after toxin-level hair testing show that Body Purifying Foot Pads encourage your body’s natural detoxification process, much like sweating toxins from your body in a sauna. Natural herbs are the active ingredients and work with your body to promote exactions of environmental toxins that have accumulated. These herbs include bamboo vinegar extract, tourmaline, citronella, vegetable fiber and vitamin C. After a few consecutive days of use, users report feeling more rested and energized. Tests show reports of disappearing aches and pains in joints and muscles, improvements in skin condition and even the ease of sinus ailments, diabetes and arthritis symptoms.

As with reflexology and acupuncture, sensitive points in the feet are conduits and correspond to toxin-releasing organs in the body. When detox pads are applied to the soles of the feet, heat from the body activates the purifying adhesive pads. The heat stimulates the meridians in the feet as well as their corresponding organs. SRC Analytical Lab has provided research proving that toxins such as nickel, arsenic, mercury, aluminum, copper, lead, dyes and plastic byproduct are absorbed from the body. These toxins are absorbed into the foot pads during the heat stimulation process helping your body to naturally rid itself of pollutants.

The Science Behind Body Purifying Foot Pads:
When toxins are absorbed into the system, most become embedded in our tissues. As the Body Purifying Foot Pads are placed on our skin, the natural herbs interact, and begin their work by emitting far infrared energy. The infrared rays not only enhances the cells functions directly, but also stimulate the Kidney 1 Meridians on the soles of the feet, creating a second front for detoxification. The Kidney 1 Meridian is used extensively by Acupuncturists and Acupressurists to also promote healing and relieve tension. In essence, the Body Purifying Foot Pads gently stimulate this point for an 8 to 10 hour period. In addition, the wood vinegar extract in the foot patches allows for a phenomenon known in Asia as the "minus ion effect". By creating an osmotic shift in the herb/skin interface it permits the transfer of toxins. This "minus ion effect" induced by the pads, accelerates the natural excretion process (through the pores), and allows the body to purge toxins at a faster rate.

Why do we need to detoxify?
Toxicity is rampant in our modern world. We are surrounded by toxic chemicals and pollutants. Invariably these toxic waste and pollutants lead to disease.

We, of course, shower or bathe, wash our hands, rinse our mouth, and brush our teeth on a regular basis. Hygiene is essential in maintaining our health! If we neglected our body by not keeping it clean, we would soon find ourselves accumulating offensive agents leading to disease.

But how do we keep the inside of our body clean? We do accumulate toxic and unwanted matter every day inside our bodies, in our bones and muscles, in our fat and in our organs. Physicians have known for centuries that health problems can result from the accumulation of foreign substances in our bodies. However, human exposure to toxins has reached alarming levels. Millions of chemicals have been produced and thousands are now used commercially every day. Many of these chemicals find their way into our bodies through our water supplies, the air we breathe, the food we eat and the cosmetics we use. In addition to commercial substances, many drugs, pharmaceutical and recreational can remain in our bodies for a very long time. Caffeine, nicotine and alcohol can further contribute to our body’s contamination. The United States Government’s Environmental Protection Agency has now officially put out warnings on many of these aggressors, including specific caution on the consumption of fish leading to mercury ingestion. California’s Attorney General has filed a lawsuit “against five grocery store Companies for failing to warn consumers that the fresh and frozen fish they sell exposes them to mercury, a chemical known to produce cancer and reproductive harm”. In addition, Dentists are now required by law to disclose the potential dangers and risks of amalgam restorations (“silver fillings”).

So what is the solution? Well, in an ideal world we would simply eliminate all those agents that are causing toxicity and disease. But realistically, if we are to live and stay healthy in this post industrial revolution era, we must detoxify our bodies at least at the same rate as we are being contaminated. This cleansing must be part of our routine to get us back into balance, healing and breaking long term congestion. "Keeping our bodies clean inside and out prevents disease and premature aging" (according to Dr. Hans Krugler, President of the International Academy of Anti-Aging. he has been instrumental in finding the relationship between toxins and premature aging and the need to detoxify). Helping our body detoxify can be done in many ways. Some experts recommend intestinal cleansing and fiber in our diet, others, using anti-parasite herbs and others using diets and fasts. All of the above, when used under the guidance of a professional can be immensely helpful.

The greatest challenge, however, is how to remove from ourselves some of the toxins that stubbornly attach to our tissues, such as heavy metals (arsenic from our water, mercury, lead, etc.). In the past, if we wanted to decrease toxic levels of mercury (from dental amalgams and fish consumption), arsenic or lead for example, we had to undergo a process called chelation. Chelating agents such as the Sulfhydryl-bearing agent DMSA was intravenously injected. Other chelators such as DMPS have also been used. These agents had to be used repeatedly until levels of the toxins were reduced. Disadvantages of this protocol are discomfort of the injection, high cost ($100.00 per shot is not uncommon), and according to James Landler M.D. possible bone marrow suppression, liver toxicity and a heavy load placed on the kidneys as the toxins are excreted.

A much simpler yet effective way to rid of our toxins is a modern application of traditional Japanese Medicine. A simple Body Purifying Foot Pad (similar to those used for pain, insulin or nicotine delivery) is placed on the bottom of the foot. The patch contains natural ingredients that stimulate and draw out toxins while we sleep. Next morning, by simply removing the patch we can actually see some of the material that has been “suctioned” out. You will be pleasantly surprised to see the dramatic results.

BAMBOO VINEGAR EXTRACT
The quality of our product is based on the purity of the Vinegar extract. The extract used in Body Purifying Foot Pads is condensed five times and contains no synthetic vinegar or starch. After the initial extraction process, the extract is dried for a period of six months. It is then filtered four times using the highest quality Umbamegashi-Binchou Charcoal . It is then dried one more time for an additional six months before it can be considered for use. This process yields a very concentrated extract with an extremely high level of purity.

HOUTTUYNIA CORDATA EXTRACT
The plant is found in Japan, Java and Nepal at altitudes of over 6200 feet. It contains a variety of flavoids, flavonoid glycosides (afzerin, quercitrin, isoquercitrin) and pyridine alkaloids; the essential oil was found to consist mainly of decanal (capry aldehyd), dodecanal (lauryl aldehyd) and 2-hendecanon (methyl nonyl ketone). Since ancient times it has been valued for it absorption properties.

LOQUAT LEAF EXTRACT
The Loquat leaf contains malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, tannate, carotene, vitamins A, B and C. It's leaves and kernel contain amygdalin (amygdalin is otherwise known as vitamin B17, or laetrile). It promotes the secretion of body fluids and has antitussive, expectorant, antiemetic properties. It has 3000 years of history in muxibustion therapies and has been used extensively in Buddhist medicine. In India it has been called the king of herbal medicine.

TOURMALINE
The name apparently comes from the Sinhalese word "Turamali" which was given to mixtures of unidentified gem gravels in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) Tourmaline exerts a cleansing and liberating energy upon our entire nervous system with a clearing and stabilizing effect. Tourmaline is best know as one of the only minerals to emit far infrared heat - which causes resonance in the body at the same frequency as water.

DIATOMACEOUS EARTH
A powerful and natural absorbing agent, diatomaceous earth can generally absorb up to 100% of its own weight in liquid and still exhibit the properties of dry powder. In fact, it's absorbent qualities make it useful for spill cleanup (the U.S. Center for Disease Control actually recommends it to clean up toxic liquid spills). Diatomaceous earth is a natural occurring siliceous sedimentary mineral compound, and has a soft, chalk-like feel to it.

CITRONELLA
Often used in aromatherapy to clear the mind, citronella also posseses potent anti-bacterial and deoderizing qualities. Native to Sri Lanka and Java, this aromatic perennial (once extracted) has a softening effect on the skin, and helps to combat excessive perspiration, making it ideal for use on the feet.

DEXTRIN
Dextrin is a product of starch hydrolysis, a carbohydrate having the same general formula as starch but a smaller and less complex molecule with adhesive properties.
