Answers:
I tried them until I was done with the pads.They did fade so I don't see how people can say that the sweat activates the chemicals to turn the pad different colors.

I personally would not suggest them though.If you want to "detox" your body, try a sauna.Sweating is one of the greatest detoxes we can do.

Drink 10 glasses of water a day.

Eat right.

Try curezone.com cleanses.Do be aware that some cleansers might make you feel fluish.Health Question & Answer

No one has conducted a research study on the detox foot pads as of yet. One doctor for a California company tested his patient's hair sample after using the detox foot pads and the test results showed a decrease in some metals. There's a new pad out there geared towards those with diabetes to help with leg circulation.

Until there is real research it is hard to know whether they work or not since everything is very anecdotal at this point.Health Question & Answer

Nope. They just contain a chemical that darkens in contact with the water and compounds in your sweat and pick up grime from the bottom of your foot. You can buy one, pour water on it and it will turn black.

Load of crap.Health Question & Answer

According to doctors they don't work. The bottom of your foot has a very hard surface and the pad can't penetrate the foot. That black that they show on ads in just surface oil and grime. Save your money.Health Question & Answer

I tried them once about a year ago and felt like I wasted my money. Health Question & Answer
