Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 My input on the foot pads. My friend's son stopped head banging, stemming and his verbal skills took off almost immediately. They are black, then greenish-brown, then white after a month of use. They take a month off and start again.same color pattern. I bought them for my sons and my hubby and I tried them also. We saw developmental improvement with my younger son and both of theirs were black with red dots that looked like blood. The red I later found out was the mercury coming out. For my hubby and I we felt VERY different the next day. Feet tingled all day and we felt sort of light headed, but with energy..I guess what you feel from detoxing?? I sent ours to a lab to see what came out. The biggest was arsenic and mercury came out of my son's feet.plus a bunch of other garbage. Pretty eye opening and great, we though. I think they are worth it. For the lab you have to fill out the form at http://www.healthmarvels.net/pdf/DetoxPadTesting.pdf and send in a $20 check per pad. The test results only shows positive or negative for a metal, chemical, etc. It doesn't not show quantity like Doctor's Data Labs, etc. Here are notes from another Mom that led me to them. Hi Christy, To answer Lalita's question, I used both Takara and Kinotakara foot pads and in terms of personal use, I found the Kinotakara to be much more effective. When I got so toxic after chelating, it was the Kinotakara pads that finally pulled much of the toxins out of me as confirmed by the lab I sent the pads to. I also sent my son's foot pads to the lab to again confirm metals and toxins coming out. The one thing I didn't do was send a Takara foot pad in for analysis. The other reason why I dislike the Takara foot pads is the awful smell. It smells like really really strong Icy Hot or Ben Gay with a weird musty smell. The Kinotakara really don't have an odor until after you take them off and they smell based on what toxins you're excreting. Kinotakara detox pads are hard to find and are a bit pricey but worth it since you don't use it forever. This in combination with infrared sauna and Beyond Clean EDTA baths, I get some good metals out of Robbie and myself. It's pretty natural and gentler. We do other things too in regards to detox but I like the foot pads since I know they work via the lab results. By the way, I too researched the Kinotakara and Takara brands and Kinotakara always won as the most effective foot pad around due to it's strong negative ionic pull....it just pulls the metals right out of the pores of your feet as the blood circulates passed the pad while sleeping during the night. My husband was such a skeptic until I found a lab willing to analyze the pad. He can't deny the test results.

The first night I used them, I slept a full 8 hours for the first time in many years - about a 25% decrease over a typical night for me. When I went in to take dd's off, she woke up long enough to mumble " I think they made me sleep better " . We are still experiencing improved sleep, so some people might want to try them for that reason, even if they're not sure about the detoxing. Tay is pretty sensory, but the pads don't bother her. I've seen a few people question whether the pads are simply absorbing sweat, discoloring the herbs. I don't think that's true, for a couple of reasons. First, the consistency of the fluid that is under a saturated pad is gooey, nothing like sweat. My feet have never sweat at night, and this looks much more like the stuff that starts coming through your skin after a few infrared sauna sessions. It was described to me as " lymph beginning to move " at the spa. I haven't researched this, so it could be total bunk. Whatever it is, it's very unlike sweat as I know it. Secondly, my pads are beginning to be a bit less saturated, although dd's are still working overtime. I wear them 8 hours each night and the last couple nights there have been dry/white areas of the patches. I bought mine off ebay, choosing someone with repeat buyers and a great price. I figure I can buy the fancy gold package ones and try them AFTER the cheap ones go clear. I've also seen people ask whether they were safe to use with amalgams. I have amalgams and I know what it feels like when I take something that moves the metal. Before I found this group, I took an enzyme product with 100mg ala per dose. Big setback - an experience you don't forget. If these pads were moving metal out of my mouth, I feel pretty confident I would feel it in short order. I have 9 amalgams and 2 are broken, so plenty of surface area to pull from. Hope this helps someone who is considering trying the pads. Darla [sPAM] just an update on ZK ZKs been better, all of a sudden. I know when you give a lot of supps it's hard to know what is helping, but something apparently is working better for him, at least yesterday. I bought the PatchIt foot detox patches and he is sleeping lighter, not wetting the bed the last 2 nites, and had a really good day on Tues. in school and at home. I will make sure to give the s.boulardii in the a.m. with the culturelle. Is it ok to mix it w/a little rice milk or cow milk and aloe juice? He usu. gets his isotonic supps before breakfast on empty stomach, then the B Vit with food. I am not sure when to add in the MCT and Yeast Fighter. If it has to be two hrs away from the s. boulardii, and he gets that and the culturelle in the a.m., then the MCT won't happen til after his school day. He did not get the MCT and yeast fighter before school yesterday and that was his best day in about 2 weeks. Anyone else have any good success with the foot patches? BTW, I have an online h.food. store and can get quite a bit at cost. Let me know how I can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
