The story behind my detox foot pads

Reflexology_chart_from_brochur

My name is Rebecca and I started Purify Your Body as a hobby/passion because I was very interested in natural health and wellness. I also had a lot of extra time on my hands, and was able to devote the evenings and weekends to creating my website, providing great customer service, and most importantly of all, providing the highest quality detox foot pad out there on the market today. I offer low prices because I have a great day job that I love, and don’t have to rely on my sales of these foot pads to pay my bills! I have been in business for over five blessed years now, and I know that my success has stemmed as a result of offering the highest quality foot pads along with great customer service!

I am very adamant about offering a detox foot pad that does not contain fillers. I see a lot of foot pads out there that contain over 50% fillers, and refuse to degrade the quality of mine just to save a buck. So know that when you are using these foot pads, they are the best quality.

My tips for you when you first try these are to put 3 foot detox pads on each foot the first night: on your toes, on your arches and on your heels. In the morning, look at the pads and see what area of your foot is leeching out the most “goo” and then on the subsequent nights, focus on the area that you observed is pulling out the most toxins. That is the correlating area of your body that may be containing the most toxins. You are welcome to put 3 pads on each foot per night, or as you see fit. There is no “right” way to use these pads. Other information you might want to know, as it is frequently asked of me:

Q: Is the brownish “goo” in the morning a result of a reaction to my feet sweating?

A: While the footpads turn dark if exposed to water (just like tea bags would) the “goo” you see is actually toxic matter that has been leeched through your lymphatic system and out your feet. If you continue to use the foot pads until you are “detoxed” you will notice that they don’t come out gooey in the morning anymore. This dispels the fallacy that sweat is what is creating the results you see. You also can get them analyzed in an independent lab, and find out what toxins YOU have in your body!

Q: How long does a detox take for a normal person?
A:
This depends on so many factors, including how often you are exposed to toxins (in your drinking water, food, the air you breathe, the chemicals you ingest, even your carpet may emit toxins!) On AVERAGE here in the US, I would have to say that a 2-3 month detox is normal per area of your foot. If you are sick or battling an illness or cancer, it could take more than a year of constant use! But even if you use the pads for only one month, you are doing a great service to your body and should be feeling more energy, better sleep, less illness.

Q: How do I know that the foot pads only take out the BAD stuff? What about medications I am on, etc?
A:
The foot pads work by pulling toxins out of your lymphatic system, and it is in your lymphatic system where your body stores the toxins – which for most of us becomes stagnant. Our bodies are so overwhelmed with toxins in this modern industrial age that it doesn’t know how to rid itself of them, as it was never exposed to them before! They are safe to use with medication and any supplements you may be taking.

Q: How do the foot pads work?
A
: Through the process of osmosis (remember from high school biology?) It is the same process that allows trees to get their nutrients from the ground through their root system, but yet nourish the leaves on their farthest branches. It is this “tree sap” or wood vinegars, that allow this process to work.

CAUTION: if you are allergic to mushrooms or shellfish, please be very cautious when using this product, as it contains those ingredients. While they do not absorb INTO your body (rather the pads pull things FROM your body), I still like to warn anyone who may be severely allergic. Also, if you are in your first trimester of pregnancy, please don’t use them for long periods of time.

If you have any questions about the use of these pads, please email me at sales@purifyyourbody.com and I normally respond within a few hours! Thank you!

Do magnets work on pain? Here is my experience.

I have to tell you my experience with a powerful magnet. I used to suffer from dreadful migraines. They were debilitating. Well, about 10 years ago I was scheduled to have an MRI (I have a hearing loss in my inner ear and the ENT wanted to make sure there wasn't a tumor pressing down on the inner ear - yes, my equilibrium is that bad normally!) The morning I was scheduled to go to the medical center for the MRI, I had one of the most horrific migraine attacks I have ever experienced.

I went to my appointment anyway. My husband (ex-husband now) took me. If you have ever had an MRI you know there is a loud knocking sound associated with it. I did not know how I was going to bear it. But I somehow did.

Now what I experienced was one of a kind. I have never experienced this before, nor since. When I got out of the MRI machine, my migraine was completely gone. And, it didn't come back! Granted, that is an expensive migraine treatment. I continued to have migraine attacks for 5 more years. Then, I heard about the detox foot pads. Until then, I never even heard of them. I put them on my feet, on the bottoms of my toes. It was like a leaky faucet - so much goo came out, it was crazy. After doing this consistently for a while, I realized my regular migraine attacks didn't happen anymore. It was a life-altering experience.

I am very grateful for this. That is the biggest reason why I started Purify Your Body and have never regretted it. So many of my customers have gotten immense relief from their migraines as a result of the detox foot pads.

Try them! You will see a difference!

Increase in men getting breast reduction surgery increased by 2,450% in 5 years!

Here is an article from Al Sears, and it is very disturbing when reading it. But since I have a lot of issues with estrogen-mimicking products, and tell everyone to not microwave food in plastic containers, or use other things that contain BPA, I now have proof to back it up!!

And, if you want to help rid your body of these toxins, try using my detox foot pads. You will be pleasantly surprised!


Now, for the article:

Now here’s a disturbing trend. Men are now getting “breast reduction” surgery like never before. The number of surgeries has risen 2,540% in 5 years.1
Even worse, doctors often recommend surgery when it isn’t necessary.

Men usually don’t need breast reduction… they need estrogen reduction.
Here’s the reason:
The female hormone estrogen is behind the rise in man boobs.
There are forms of estrogen everywhere in our environment. It gets into a man’s body and sends the signal to become more feminine, hence the boobs.
It’s bad for women, too. An increase in estrogen means depression and anxiety. And a big increase in the risk of cancer.
Farmers use estrogen in cattle, pigs, and chicken to fatten them up. When you eat the meat, you get the estrogen, too. And that’s not all… there are chemicals that have a structure that looks like estrogen.
These chemicals are also in thousands of products you use everyday. From shampoo, plastic cups, garden hoses, flooring, etc. – all those “estrogen mimics” are getting into your bloodstream and sending “female” signals to the tissues in your body.
Chemicals that look like estrogen send the same feminizing signals as real estrogen. Sadly, your body can’t tell the difference. That’s why so many guys are being turned into women.
It’s not just man boobs you have to worry about. These estrogen signals make you fat, slow, and tired. And they zap your sex life, too.
If you’re a woman, the extra dose of estrogen can make your menstrual cycle more painful. And when you go through menopause, it will likely be more traumatic.
The flood of estrogen you get from your environment stops your body’s production of hormones. That’s your body’s way of trying to stay balanced. If you’re getting estrogen from other sources, your body doesn’t need to make its own.
But along with stopping estrogen, your body will also stop making progesterone. And that’s bad news. Progesterone is a woman’s “feel good” hormone. It relieves anxiety and depression. I see low levels of progesterone in at least half of my female patients, if not more.
On top of feeling depressed and irritable, all that extra estrogen ramps up your risk for heart attack, stroke, and cancer.2,3
The good news is you can take simple steps to get rid of the extra estrogen in your blood. The first step is to lower your exposure to chemicals, especially in your food:

  • Avoid processed, packaged, and fast foods.
  • Eat organic whenever you can.
  • Stick to grass-fed, hormone-free beef and poultry products.
  • Eat wild-caught fish whenever possible.
  • Stay away from processed grains.
Step two is taking natural compounds that flush excess estrogen from your bloodstream. They’re often sold together at any health-food store. One is Indole 3 Carbinole (I-3-C), and the other is Diindolylmethane (DIM).
I-3-C and DIM are concentrated forms of cruciferous vegetables. Cruciferous vegetables are great at clearing estrogen, but you would have to eat a lot to get the estrogen-cleansing effect. Taking a supplement is easier. To give you an idea, 400 mg of I-3-C is equal to 130 raw brussels sprouts or ¼ head of raw cabbage.4


To Your Good Health,

Lead in your Lipstick? Toxins in your makeup? Yikes!

I tell many of my friends over and over about how bad mainstream makeup is for you. Not just makeup, but skincare products and perfumes, shampoos, conditioners, etc. They must be sick and tired of me nagging them about it. I have slowly been converting to more natural products myself. After reading on this website though, Safe Cosmetics I am now wondering if even my "natural" and "organic" products are really all that.

I have most of my eye shadows, my blush, foundation, eye liner, mascara, and lipstick from different companies that purport to be "safe" from toxins. I do not have lipliner yet. I do like The Body Shop products, and will check them out next time I am near one of them for some lipliner. Their mascara is one of the best. SEcond only to Clinique's mascara in the pale greenish blue tube. Clinique's is definitely not toxin-free, but I still love it!

If you want to find a way to get rid of the toxins you are putting into your body, then you should try my detox foot pads.

And, if you email me your address (from my website at http://www.purifyyourbody.com) I will send you a free sample.

Hypothyroidism

I am battling hypothyroidism. It is very frustrating when I am working out and eating good, healthy food, yet the weight still creeps up on me. I have decided not to take any medication. Instead, I am focusing on a few different things. First, I am taking Thyromin from Young Living. It has adrenal and endocrine support, along with iodine and pituitary support. I am also using the Thyroid program from Mother Earth Minerals. I am very grateful for this, as my friend, Beth, has gifted me with these wonderful supplements. She sells homeopathic HcG and the ability to lose weight quickly works (if you don't suffer from hypothyroid issues).

It is a fallacy that you can lose X amount of pounds if you exercise and burn x times 3500 calories. Especially since many of us have thyroid issues. Where did my thyroid issues stem from? I did some research and realized that fluoride and bromides basically mimic iodine... when you are exposed to these toxins, your thyroid gland absorbs them to saturation. Then, when iodine (or iodide) is introduced to your body, your thyroid gland does not use it because it is already saturated, thinking it has enough already. And, it ends up not having the iodine our bodies need, to function correctly. I am simplifying this process, but it is easier to understand that way.

So, it is more than just supplementing with a good iodine product. It is decreasing your exposure to these other toxins, and detoxing your body as well.

I have been selling my own brand of detox foot pads for over 5 years now. But in the past 2 years I have rarely used them. I had been using them faithfully for over 6 years, and they had come clean in the mornings, so I started just using them on weekends. Then, I stopped using them on weekends. So my body slowly started accumulating toxins again. Purify Your Body detox foot pads are the highest quality foot pad on the market. There are only 2 other brands that equal mine in quality. But because I do this as a side business, I do not have to sell them at an extremely high price, and I occasionally have sales. So, you get the highest quality for the lowest price.

So, the past couple weeks I have been using the foot pads again. I am also detoxing by using the Far Infrared Sauna in my basement. I do supplement with minerals -- that is important because you will sweat out the bad stuff AND the good stuff.

My basal body temperature is slowly rising, which is a sign that the hypothyroidism is improving. I will be satisfied when it is consistently above 97.7 degrees first thing in the morning. When I first started, it was 96.4 +/- .2 degrees for 3 days. (I averaged).

I will definitely post updates as time goes by.

MS and Lyme Disease

I met a man last summer when I was volunteering at a local marathon. He sat down next to me as he was taking a break. What was interesting about him is that he looked to be a healthy, middle aged man who was in shape. His story tugged at my heart strings, though. He was diagnosed with MS in the late 80s. He said it was horrible, and he felt he was too young for a disease like that. He was on disability, couldn't hold down a job, couldn't provide for his family.

The worst part is that he was mis-diagnosed. What he really had was Lyme Disease. Once he was treated for the actual disease, his symptoms improved so dramatically it was life-altering. He says he still gets stiff joints sometimes, and the treatment for Lyme Disease was horrible. He didn't go into too much detail about it but it included intravenous antibiotics for months.

I wonder how many more MS sufferers out there really have Lyme Disease instead of MS. If you, or anyone you know suffers from MS, it might be worth taking a look at Lyme Disease. The symptoms are almost identical. And, more and more doctors are learning about Lyme Disease and proper ways to test for it. There are many co-infections associated with Lyme Disease, and sometimes antibody tests do NOT show up positive. In fact, 60% or more are inaccurate, according to one double blind study. Be sure to get the western blot (IGG and IGM) and NOT the ELISA test.

Good luck.
