The foot contains the most number of pores per square inch.
Most people experience an increased sense of well being, more energy and greater mental clarity after completing the ion energizer program. Physical activity can be raised in older people.
The process uses osmosis for movement of particles through a membrane from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. Negative ions will course through the body collecting toxic substances thereby neutralizing the positive charges.
Note: It has to be made clear that 30-35% of color change could be the result of interaction between the particles in water and the electrodes as well as the acidity or the alkalinity of the foot. However, approximately 65-70% of the color change will be due to substances pulled from the body which will more often manifest as sticky residues.
How Does foot detox how it works?
An ionic foot detox is said to work by pulling the toxins out of your body through your feet. Take, for example, the popular foot detox bath IonCleanse. Advertised as a safe and relaxing way to clear out the body, the ionizing machine works to ionize the foot bath water.
This process is said to give the hydrogen in the water a positive charge. The positive charge is said to attract the negatively charged toxins in your body. The ions in the foot bath water supposedly hold a charge that enables them bind to any heavy metals and toxins in your body, similar to how a magnet works. This allows the toxins to be pulled out through the bottoms of your feet.
Some foot detox advocates claim that if the water in the foot bath changes color, it means the detox is working. This is not true. Whether the detox works has nothing to do with the color of the water. The water color can change for a number of mundane reasons, namely the presence of impurities in the water. This often happens when using tap water.
The water changing color may even be due to the foot bath itself. Although foot bath manufacturers say the ionizing charge will remove metals and toxins from the body of the person using it, they don’t explain how the charge skips over the metals that are actually in the foot bath.
The electricity in the product may cause some of the metal from the foot bath to be corroded by use. This could account for some of the discoloration in the water. Most foot detoxes also use special salts in the water, which can interact and cause the water to change color.
