Traditional medicines which have been around for ages may have their naysayers but they wouldn’t have survived if they were not beneficial. The traditional practice of acupuncture has been around for thousands of years and is proving modern-day skeptics wrong. And detox food pads work similarly.
The National Health System website says that there is positive evidence to support the effectiveness of acupuncture against several types of pain and osteoarthritis.
Detox Foot Pads
Foot pads work similarly to acupuncture. Acupuncture acts upon the autonomic nervous system or the involuntary system, in the body. So do detoxifying pads.
The foot pads stimulate the kidney and liver meridians. That, in turn, increases the rate of metabolism of detoxification of blood and purification of the body by the kidney and liver.
The detox food pads use the mechanism of reflexology to detoxify. This method uses reflex points situated at the bottom of the foot to activate some definite areas in our body. The reflex points have an important role in health improvement, say backers of the detox foot pads.
Modern times has thrown up a lot of work that makes you sit for hours on end. This unnatural posture makes people lethargic which again makes them sedentary even at home.
While it is true that sitting is necessary for certain situations, we disrupt the flow of blood to our legs by this continuous inactivity.
This inactive lifestyle is dangerous in the long term. This inhibition in the flow of blood makes the muscles, tissues organs, and cells get affected negatively.
Making The Foot pads At Home
Detox foot pads are simple to make. The raw materials are inexpensive and easily available. The following procedure should only be followed at bedtime. They should be worn overnight and discarded first thing in the morning.
You will need a quarter cup of vinegar made of apple cider; one tablespoonful of garlic chopped finely; one tablespoonful of onion, again chopped finely; a saucepan, gauge pads with adhesive, and socks.
Here Is How To Begin
The vinegar should be boiled. Add the garlic and onion to the apple cider vinegar and let it be for over 10 mins. Remove the saucepan and allow the mixture to cool another 20 minutes. Wet the pads with the mixture but do not drench it. Take care that the adhesive does not get wet. Squeeze out the excess. Stick the pads to the sole of each foot at the center. Make sure the adhesive is in place. Wear socks over the pad. Go to bed and discard the pads first thing when you wake up.
Hope this detox method works for you!
