Do nuubu detox foot pads really work? There's no
reliable evidence that detox foot pads work.
Manufacturers of detox foot pads say that their
products draw toxins out of your body while you
sleep. Some manufacturers have claimed that detox
foot pads also treat high blood pressure,
headaches, cellulite, depression, diabetes,
insomnia and aid in weight loss. Detox foot pad
are stuck on the bottom of your feet and left
there overnight, purportedly to draw out toxins,
such as heavy metals. When you peel off the detox
foot pad in the morning, its darkened or
discolored appearance supposedly reflects the
toxins that have been removed from your body.
However, no scientific studies have been
published that show that detox foot pads work or
that they're safe. The Federal Trade Commission
has even charged some distributors of detox foot
pads with deceptive advertising. The bottom
line As with anything that sounds too good to be
true, your best bet is to wait for scientific
evidence that proves a claim before investing
your time and money. What Are nuubu Detox
Footpads? The theory behind the pads is that when
placed on the bottom of the feet, they absorb
toxins, heavy metals, metabolic wastes,
parasites, and even cellulite from your body as
you sleep. By morning, the once white foot pads
would appear darkened, which would supposedly
signify that the pads had leached toxins from
your body overnight. The more you use these pads,
the less dark the pads become over time. Some
companies selling the detox foot pads went so far
as to claim these pads could treat a host of
medical problems, including high blood pressure.
They claimed the pads could make your headaches,
depression, and insomnia go away, and that they
could even help you lose weight.

Do nuubu Detox Foot Pads Work? There are no
proven benefits to using detox foot pads. When
NMS Labs conducted a study for ABC News
analyzing the used pads from a group of eight
participants, they found no toxins, heavy metals,
or the like. What they did find was that the
darkening of the pads was caused by the wetness
of feet during the night. When placed in steam,
the pad darkened in the same way. "To my
knowledge, there is no scientific data showing
that detox foot masks have any true effect on the
body," Zeichner explains. "The only detoxifying
organs in the body are the liver and the kidneys,
which both filter the blood. While the skin does
release sweat, it is not truly a detoxifying
organ in the same way." Gerstner adds, "The idea
is the foot pads can help detox the
bodyremoving chemicals, toxins, or wastes. There
is no scientific data to back this up." In 2010,
the Federal Trade Commission ordered a federal
judge to ban the makers of the Kinoki Foot Pads
(a specific brand of detox foot pad) from
selling a wide variety of products. According to
the FTC, the makers "falsely claimed to have
scientific proof that the foot pads removed toxic
materials from the body." Who Should Avoid Detox
Foot Pads? If you've accepted the fact that you
won't see any detoxifying results from the foot
pads and still want to use them, by all means.
All three doctors agree that the detox foot pads,
although ineffective, are harmless to try. "So
long as you do not develop an allergy from
applying the foot pads and they do not cause too
much damage to your pocketbook, then there is
little downside to trying one if you are
interested," Zeichner says.

What to Try Instead of nuubu Detox Foot Pads
? "If someone really wants to get to the root
cause of an illness or their symptoms, I would
recommend looking at their diet, eliminating
stress, trying to improve sleep habits, and
seeing how they can improve their gut biome,"
Firshein says. "Fasting is another way to
jump-start the detox process." And of course, it
is always important to make an appointment with a
qualified physician if you are ill or have any
symptoms that could point to an illness. Because
there are no proven health benefits to using
detox foot pads, the product is merely an
overnight foot mask. But even in terms of a foot
treatment, Gerstner says there are better
options. To help tired, sore feet, she
recommends soaking them in Epsom salt soaks or
magnesium bath salt soaks, and if you have dry
heels, exfoliating with a foot pumice and
glycolic cream.
