A member asked:
Can chinese foot patches that remove toxins from the body really work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful: The skin is a barrier against things entering our body...Or leaving it. The odds of a patch, chinese or otherwise, being able to selective suck out toxins are fairly slim. They are deigned to change color on contact to moist skin, giving the appearance of having removed something harmful.
