Detox Ion Foot Baths can also pull toxins out of your body through your feet, balance pH, and promote well-being.
With feet quietly resting in the foot bath the debris that begins to form in the water are the toxins. The water changes color naturally because of the chemical reaction between the electricity and the salt water, not because of toxins.
The Center for Disease Control reports that up to 85% of all illness are caused by toxins and pollutants in our bodies. The human body functions best when the ions are balanced at 80% negative and 20% positive.
The goal of the foot detoxes is to make the body’s pH more “alkaline,” because an alkaline body is crucial to a person’s health. Diseases thrive in an acidic environment. So the less acidic your body is and the more alkaline, the less prone you are to contracting a disease, such as osteoporosis or cancer, etc. Besides a healthy diet, an ionic detox helps to facilitate the alkalization process through the process of ionization, which removes “free radicals” from the body.
