My mom told me recently that since using
those foot pads that detoxify your body,
she had noticed she has been less
depressed and anxious? Can there be any
truth to this? I don't know too much
about how they work but she sent me this
link to buy some http://www.tvproductsandmore.com/
Health_Beauty-Detox_Patches_8_pack.html and I have seen them advertised on tv.
Has anyone one on here used them and
really feels they helped with depression?
I prefer natural remedies to prescription
drugs so please answer if you know more
about this. Serious answers only please.

The detox footpads are a money making
scam. Yes they work, but think of the
amount of toxins in your body and how
small the patch is. It isn't enough to
significantly reduce your toxins. They
are so expensive, so I would say, save
your money on those and when it all adds
up (and not slowly), go to a spa and get a
detox body wrap which can be done all
naturally and will definitely help you.
I don't want to discredit your mother, but
there are other reasons why she might be
feeling less anxious, plus buying the pads
and doing something for herself like this
is probably helping her.
Maybe you both could do a day at the spa

I think its a scam as well. I really
wouldn't bother with it. It's good that
she feels less anxious, but I am thinking
it is more of a mental thing (she thinks
it'll make her feel better, so her body
responds to that).
Do you take any multivitamins? That
helped me greatly be more ready to go,
less anxious, and a bit less depressed.
Exercise and other natural ways should
help as well.

Yes, vitamins are great, and you can also
try a detox diet which will do an overall
cleansing of your system. It's still good
to do the wraps tho. Stuff can get stuck
in your fat and your skin that won't be
touched by a diet plan.
