Detox foot pads are all the trend right now, a magical pad with homeopathic herbs attached to your feet while you sleep and all the toxins come right out.
However, do they work, do they actually pull all the toxins out while you sleep? The answer, absolutely not.
There is no medical proof detox foot pads pull toxins from your feet into this magical pad.
So why try them or even buy detox foot pads?
A couple of months ago I wanted to try them out, just to see for myself. I knew they were a hox, but hey I wanted to see for myself why everyone was talking about them!
First thing, obviously they are going to be discolored when you remove them in the morning! One of the main ingredients in detox foot pads is tourmaline, an all natural black powder! So no, the pads do not discolor because the toxins are coming out.
Next, I absolutely hate sleeping with them on, they are not comfy and feel extremely awkward! It feels like someone is squeezing my foot, and not in a good massage way.
But, they leave the bottoms of my feet VERY soft and smelling SO good, for weeks. Seriously, I shower every evening, but my feet still smell like peppermint for weeks. The peppermint seeps into the skin and just keeps permeating, it’s like deodorant for your feet.
In the end, the pads aren’t really worth the money, you can mix peppermint essential oil with vitamin-e drops & your feet to have the same results.
