Could they work?



I am most intrigued by this product that I keep seeing. Has anyone heard of it/tried it? Thoughts?


You apply a foot detox patch to each foot before sleeping every night. The product works on the principle that tree trunks, which are composed of numerous tiny tubes, are able to draw water and nutrients through the roots and up to all other parts of the tree. Expanding on Reflexology Concept, that different parts of the foot are connected to every other parts of our body, the flexi-patch are applied on the sole to help dispel wastes products from the body, very much alike the way the tree trunk operates.

That pic is SICK. YUCK. I hate feet. But seriously, I would not have tried this because I don't want ot see the waste that comes out of my feet. If it is that. YUCK

It sounds reasonable...like it could work, but with dhulles' endorsement, or lack of rather, I would not try it, because I hate feeling like I got scammed...being a guy anyway. Girls get scammed all the time...it's their nature. No offense.

None taken. I can admit that I've bought makeup and other "essentials" because Tyra Banks told me to.

I think these are SO gross. I do not get how they work and I think there has to be some kind of scam to these, don't know what though. Maybe I just don't want to think about all the yucky stuff that could come out of my feet. ick

I saw the same commercial that yo momma-in-law saw.

Totally didn't work.
Totally smelled.
Totally turned that dark color when ANY kind of moisture touched it. Even water.

Oops - it was a commercial. I meant I saw that same 20/20 program.

I had heard that there's a chemical on the foot pad that interacts with the moisture on your feet that turns it brown. With eventual continual use, as the chemical wears into your feet, that's when they don't turn white anymore, because the chemical is no longer interacting with your feet, but with the chemical layer on your feet.

I am curious just because Biore strips really intrigued me too. They are gross, and totally do nothing for you. Yet people seem to buy them.

I don't care for anything that points out the similarities between my legs and tree trunks.

I have to admit... I bought them and tried them. I only used them one time because in the morning they were so gross I couldn't bear to use them again.

Let's hope it is a scam and I don't really have that many toxins in my body
