I guess the thing come from the Chinese science "reflexology" and is made with 12 natural ingredients that when combined and slapped on your foot, magically pulls out the toxins like Mercury and other metals I have never heard of before. Here is the list of what is in this thing:
Bamboo Vinegar
Wood Vinegar
Tourmaline "emits negative ions and far-infrared rays (FIR)"
Saururus Chinensis "encourages diuresis"
Houttuynia Cordata (whatever that is)
Eucalyptus
Agarucus Mushroom
Chitosan (Seashell)
Cornstarch "excellent liquid absorption abilities"
The commercial is hysterical, the people slap this maxi-pad looking thing on their foot and after a day it is all dirty with the toxins from your body.
Hilarious!
Here is a testimony:
"I just got the results back from my analysis and I was amazed with what the Takara Detox Foot Patches™ are pulling out of my body. Excessive amounts of asbestos, lead, fluoride, copper, mercury, platinum, formaldehyde, mold, parasites, and a host of other food additives, chemicals, and toxins. What a god-send these patches are! I never knew that my body was so polluted, but after faithfully using the patches, many of my health issues have seemingly disappeared, and I feel so good. I'm telling all my friends about the Takara Detox Foot Patch™. It really works!"
OR maybe the patch contains all these gross things already, you step on it and break capsules of dirt so it looks like a bunch of stuff got pulled out of the tough skin on the bottom of your foot.
Anyway, I guess you can say that I don't by into this stuff!
I need to invent some crazy contraption.

Ancient post, I know, but I was just googling for info on these. I've pulled the patches (originally white) off my feet which are disgusting in the mornings. My mothers friend who has been hospitalized recently with some serious health concerns used them, and her doctor wanted to test the patches to make sure they weren't harming her treatment. They found high levels of mercury and other heavy metals. It may be goofy, but the patches are doing something.
