Do you pay attention to TV commercials or occasionally watch late-night infomercials? If so, you may have heard of detox food pads.
Before continuing to focus on detox foot patches and their success, it is important to understand what they are and what they are supposed to do. Detox foot pads are similar to traditional pads and bandages, but they are adhesive. This keeps the pads securely placed on your feet.
Detox foot pads are made by several different manufacturers. Each manufacturer has its own formulations, but many patches contain wood or bamboo vinegar. Although there is no scientific proof to support claims that this ingredient helps detoxify the body, many claim that it is successful.
When trying out a new product, it is recommended that you read product reviews online. As stated above, there are many manufacturers of detox foot patches. Pay close attention to these different brands, as you will find the difference. Not all detox foot patches are made with the same ingredients. You can easily see this by visiting Amazon.com and doing a search for “detox foot.” Amazon.com allows ratings and reviews. Some products are rated higher than others.
Reading product reviews is a great way to gauge a product’s success, but be careful when reviewing detox foot pads. You will read and see on infomercials that the pads change to a dark brown or black color. Most assume this is proof that toxins are being eliminated from the body. There are some claims that this color is due to the mixture of sweat and the aforementioned vinegar, not toxins.
When reading product reviews for detox food pads, to find the best product, look for detailed reviews. Avoid those that say “I saw the toxins with my own eyes!” Instead, look for reviews where people talk about an improvement in their health, skin, or general well-being. After all, that is the point of a detox. A detox should leave you feeling like a “new” person with more energy.
On average, you can purchase a 5-day supply of detox food pads for $15 to $30. To some, this may not seem like much of an investment and may be worth a try. If you’re on a budget and can’t justify spending money on a product that may or may not work, consider cheaper or more natural approaches. Eating organic foods can prevent new toxins from building up, allowing your body to work to eliminate stored ones. Water and juice fasts can be difficult due to the lack of solid food, but they are successful and inexpensive ways to detoxify your body.
