I have been wearing my detox foot pads for a few weeks now, pretty consistently. They went from looking like this:
To looking like this: (notice how there are large amounts of white on them)
Except for my toes.. here is a picture of the detox foot pads that I put on my toes from last night:
The toes have NEVER come clean for me. But I will get back to that in a second. First, I want to say that I have NO DOUBT in my mind that the foot pads work to pull toxins out of my body. Not only do I sleep better (which is something I really need), I feel better and stronger when I wear them consistently. But beyond that, they are pulling less toxins out of my body over time because there are not as many toxins IN my body anymore... it makes sense to me.
Many people think the foot pads are a scam, and say that they turn dark because of sweat. If that was the case, then why are mine getting lighter and lighter as I wear them? Not because of sweat, but because of the decrease in toxins in my body for them to take out.
The toes are another story. Since wearing them inconsistently on and off for years, and more recently wearing them consistently on my toes, I still have not been able to get them to come "clean" in the morning like the other areas of my feet.
This means one of two things...
First, it could mean that the toxins in my head (the toes are the reflexology point for the head) are so prominent and overflowing that I just haven't been able to clean them out yet... get rid of them, etc. Many heavy metals have been in my head -- the mercury fillings in my mouth that I got as a kid (they are now replaced with composite fillings), the root canals, TMJ issues, migraines, I used to drink diet soda pop filled with aspartame which is a neurotoxin, etc etc etc. I also have a small tumor in my head, so whatever is going on is pretty bad, and I need to continue detoxing.
Second, it could mean that I am currently exposing myself to something toxic to my brain, and no matter what I do, since I keep exposing myself to it, they will never come clean.
There actually is a third option, which could be a mixture of those two.
If I am exposing myself to something toxic in my environment, I do not know what it is. I use all natural, homemade products for my showers (shampoo, soap, conditioner), I use homemade toothpaste, I use homemade lotions and natural deodorants and body sprays. I even use natural cleansing products except the occasional drano maybe once every few months when an old drain gets clogged.... I even use natural homemade laundry soap and I use vinegar as a fabric softener.
My diet is not 100% natural... I do eat some canned foods, or some processed foods, but not many. I do cook from scratch much of the time. And, I have avoided sugar (no sweets, no chocolate, candy or dessert!) for over 8 weeks now.
So, overall, I have been doing much better than the average American. And yet I still have toxins coming out of my head/toe area.
That is why it is so important for me to wear my foot pads. I will continue wearing them on my toes. I really want to get them to come back less toxic, and more clean. That will be a time to celebrate, for sure!
And from my own experience, I know that they work.
