Why Detoxify with an Ionic Foot Bath?
The health benefits of negative ions are well known. When water is ionized and split into H+ and OH- ions (and sometimes into H3O+ and H2O2 ions), these ions are able to enter the body through the 4,000 large pores of the feet. Then the circulatory and lymphatic systems transport the ions throughout the body. These ions neutralize oppositely charged toxins in the cells that are normally slow to exit the body. In this way, all the body’s organs can become energized and stimulated to function optimally. The body then rids itself of these toxins through its normal processes of urination, defecation and sweating. Ionic detox has been known to: • Remove toxins, free radicals and body waste products that can cause health problems (In an Aug. ‘04 study by Carlos A. Lopez-Moreno, MD, there was a significant deposit of urea, creatinine and glucose in the foot basin in 12 patients with chronic illnesses.) • Chelate heavy metals (In a Feb. ‘02 study by Doctor’s Data in St. Charles, IL, there was
