Re: Ionic foot spas

that IS interesting.  
i found a simple little foot bath the other day for $2,
so i thought i'd give it a whirl.  
feels very good.  so far i put magnesium chloride
and trace minerals in the water.  tomorrow, i will
try H2O2.  i think this is a good thing... not sure if
it is imperative to have a machine that's thousands
of dollars - for me, at any rate.  :)  
love, patricia

For me, I don't care to put my feet in somethingusing electricity.  A plain old foot soak minus a plugin, using Magnesium Chloride Oil works great! Lizzie

good idea, lizzie!
i think i'll just be unplugging it and
using the footbath without electricity.  :)
i'll keep a bit of hot water nearby to
renew the heat.  love, patricia

Thanks, this is an interesting article about ionic foot
baths, and written by someone who I think really
understands these (as this matches some of my
experiences with them).

Although I previously had a very bad reaction to an ionic foot
bath, I think that had more to do with overdoing it in
terms of duration and frequency.  At the time, I decided that the
only way this was really going to work was to have
one of these at home, so I could start really slowly.  And this
one here appears to be a good candidate for a home machine
(in terms of quality, adjustability, safety, and cost)

Marc, when you tried an ionic foot spa, about 5 years ago - with catastrophic results - was that one of those spas that have a switching, digital power supply instead af a transformer?

I don't know, as I was visiting a practitioner who had one.  However, I don't
think that was the issue, as the catastrophic results occurred 24 hours later.
It seemed to me that this was caused by a massive detox reaction that my
body could not handle, so the toxins ended up in other parts of my body
instead of outside of my body.

Re: DIY Ionic foot spas & cultured food; fermented vegs

Dr Richard Loyd, one of the Rife Drs recommends his patients to detox the body, especially mold fungus with a simple DIY detox foot bath using a small battery, I have made one but yet to try it, but some of my friends have seen great results (one is a lyme suffer told me his mold fungus readings in the body was much reduced by using the simple detox foot bath regularly)

Since this DIY type is a 9 volt battery, I guess the emf exposure from a DC battery is not as damaging as AC emf signals?? I have no knowledge of these matters.

Dr Loyd says the simple DIY type is as effective as a $3000 detox foot spa device, I think he used to marketing a very expensive detox footspa device( if I haven't remembered wrong); you can make the DIY type for $10

Also another rife researcher also recommends the detox foot bath. She suggests trying it slowly to avoid overloading the body with detox.

Another great detox alternative to  electrical means is eating cultured & fermented food & vegs; Dr Mercola says fermented vegs are highly nutritious & powerful scavengers for heavy metals, various chemical toxins, & keep pathogenic bacterias, virus under control.

It seems nowadays there are many parents of autistic children on the internet have adopted the Gaps diets with good improvement of their children' condition. As a no of austistic 'experts'/ Drs said austism is very much linked to overload of metal & chemical toxins in the body, together with bacteria & virus etc & EMF exposure; Dr Klinghardt empathizes reducing EMF exposure for all autistic patients. I think supporting the immune system with GAPS method / cultured food is worth considering.

Let us know how this works for you... I was just thinking that $200 was a lot
better than $3000, but $10 is even better still... :-)

      I have been using Dr Loyd's version for about 4 years --I used to have Lyme Disease and used it every day like many others with Lyme as well as those with mold sensitivities. It works and does a  good job.  But one must put the feet into individual pails/containers.

   When I got EHS/EMS I stopped doing these foot detoxes as I was concerned about the electricity from even a 9V battery - however after reading the study "Microwaves Imitate Pesticides" I started to use Dr Loyd's foot detox and  it does help and the electricity generated by the battery does not effect me at all........ though now I seem to need to put more salt into the water --I used to only need to put in 1/4 teaspoon as anymore and I would feel irritation on my ankles -- now I use 1/2 tsp though and  do not feel any irritation....... 1/2 tsp in each pail/container is the recommended amount of salt.  


MOLD and LYME TOXINS  
has instructions as well as a picture showing how to make a detox ionic foot bath.
For rapid detox he decided on the ionic foot tub. Instead of the Multi-Zap he would use alligator test leads from Radio Shack to attach a 9-volt battery. The positive went to the side with the left foot and the negative side went to the right foot. Each side would have 1/8 to 1/2 teaspoon of Celtic or Real Salt and 3 inches of warm water. Treatment time would be 30 minutes a day. It is possible that this setup would kill some pathogens in addition to helping with detox."
We are finding the ionic foot detox with the feet in separate containers works much faster than with both feet in the same tub.  This is most effective when the Harmonic Generator is used as the voltage source so pathogens can be removed during detox sessions. It is also possible to use a plain 9-volt battery. Please note that the feet must be in separate tubs with an electrode each side for best results

How to Make Ionic Detox Foot Baths

How Do Ionic Foot Baths Detox the Body
One of the main misconceptions about ionic foot baths is that the color change in the water is based on the toxins being removed from the body. This is almost entirely untrue. The color in the water is due mostly to the breakdown of the electrodes, the impurities in the water, and the oils and sweat on the person's feet. The way a footbath works is by allowing the body to absorb negative ions from the footbath. These ions travel through the body and allow the toxins - usually positively charged - in the body to free themselves from their bonds with the body's tissues and cells. The toxins, now neutrally charged and bound with a negative ions, are then able to be removed from the body by the liver and kidneys during the next few days. Many people report darker urine color or stronger odor for a day or two after their footbath treatment. Blood tests before and after a series of ...

Replace nutrients after foot bath ------
Intramax is highly regarded, though a bit pricey -- approx. $70 for 1 month. Look for liquid multi-vit products with fulvic or humic mineral content.
