Detox gently, while you sleep.

Detox patches are widely used in Asia and Northern Europe. Relatively new to United States, gold detox foot patches help release and absorb heavy metals and toxins from the body naturally, which may alleviate minor pain in the body, support normal blood circulation, increase immunity, improve organ function, reduce swelling in the body, prevent cancer and disease, and improve quality of sleep.

Potent all-natural ingredients in these Japanese Gold detox foot patches include the Agaricus mushroom from the jungles of Brazil, chitosan, bamboo sap, eucalyptus sap, ionic tourmaline minerals that contain far infrared rays which resonate with the same long wavelength of water in the body, saururus chenesis which was the first plant to grow at the atomic bomb site in Hiroshima, fermented adjusting starches and other potent plant ingredients. The dried sap in foot patches has a strong sterilizing power, detoxification and absorption qualities. Japanese Gold Detox foot patches use at least 30% tourmaline, versus regular detox patches (often called "Blue" Patches) which use only 8-15% tourmaline. The extra tourmaline increases and harmonizes the detox power of herbs within the Gold Patches.

Usage: Place the patch gold side down on in the center of the sticky gauze pad , and adhere the patches to the soles of the feet overnight, when the body detoxifies. At night, foot patches should be worn 8-12 hours. In individuals with sluggish lymph systems or slow circulation, the patches can be worn during the day instead, for 6-8 hours. Patches can also be applied to other areas of the body to detox directly. Used this way they may alleviate back pain at the source, help with varicose veins, work on cancer, and more.

Depending on the individual, the detox may last for two or three days to two or three weeks, or longer in the case of more severe disease.The patch contents start to oxidize after breaking the airtight plastic seal of a pair of patches. The patches warm up to open the pores to draw and absorb the accumulated wastes from osmotic pressure through the skin from the blood and lymph systems.

The feet, being the extremities furthest from the heart, have the hardest job of pumping blood carrying toxins back up to the heart, kidneys, lungs and liver and out through skin for natural excretion from the body. When lying horizontally, the body fluids gather in the head and toes. Toxins that are heavier tend to sink to the lower part of the body when standing during the day and normally accumulate around the feet with gravity.

After only one night of body detox, there may be significant changes to the smell and color of the sachet (from gold to brown to grayish black) as it reflects the amount and degree of toxins which were extracted from the body. With continuous usage, there should be a visible reduction in the stain and odor of the sachet.

The feet are considered the second heart in Eastern Medicine, an abbreviated version of the body, with over 62 acupuncture points on the soles relating to the major organs in the body, as in western foot reflexology. The diagram at the right shows the corresponding acupressure points on your feet: the areas where the toxins are coming from will turn color on the patches.
