Detox Body And Remove Toxins While You Sleep
By: lizzie scott
Throughout life, people have been accumulating toxins from the food they eat, the polluted air they breathe, the contaminated water they drink, the exposure to electromagnetic radiation, etc. When the waste products or toxins in the body reach an excessive level, it can cause fatigue, restlessness and many other health problems.
Today's stressful living and polluted working environments have significantly reduced the level of negative ions found, which may result as the following problems:
• Blood vessels become constricted
• Blood becomes acidic and pressure increases
• Bones weaken
• Urination declines
• Pulse rate increases
• Fatigue increases
• Strained heart
With the recent outbreak of many diseases worldwide, people have realized the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Combining the benefits of reflexology, Kinohimitsu health pads when applied to the soles of the feet (or any parts experiencing pain such as shoulders, hands, legs or waist), helps to neutralize the damages caused by positive ions and this improves breathing, detoxifies the body, enhances the immune system and overall well-being.
In 1974, the Swiss Meteorological Institute first studied problems related to seasonal winds in various regions of the earth. The Foehn that blows across Switzerland, the Sirocco in Italy, the Sharav in the Middle East, and the Mistral in southern France were determined to cause physical and mental effects ranging from headaches and depression to heart attacks.
The one common denominator in all these wind variants was the type of electrical charge of the ions in the air. A very high concentration of positive ions was found to be the culprit. Conversely, the air quality studied at the site of a waterfall, in the mountains, or after a spring rain showed significant amounts of negative ions. Further research revealed that human beings respond to negative ion levels above 1000 ions per cc. Scientific research concluded that negatively charged ions have positive effects on living organisms. Plants grow faster and healthier, humans respond with increased alertness and become more relaxed.
In ideal indoor living conditions, the ion concentration should be anywhere from 2000-4000 negative ions per cubic centimetre (per cc). Unfortunately most of the elements in our modern day environments act as a vacuum for negative ions. Air-conditioning, heating, synthetic fibres in our clothing, pollution, TV screens, overcrowding, and furniture cause a severe depletion of negative ions. The typical home interior can be measured to average 100 negative ions per cc.
Workplaces, particularly factories and office buildings have even more harmful air, largely due to the steel and concrete fabrication of commercial buildings. These materials absorb the charge of negative ions like magnets. Recent studies measuring air quality of office buildings report an average of 25-50 negative ions per cc. Experiments have shown that negative ions limit the production of serotonin in the body, preventing depression and fatigue. Negative ions activate cells, purify the blood, stabilise the nervous system and improve your immunity.
Using all natural tree extracts and negative ions from Japan as key ingredients, Kinohimitsu (Kino means tree and Himitsu means secret), each detox patch is loaded with negative ions which is known to have positive effects in detoxifying the body and enhancing overall well-being.
Negative ions, or negatively charged ions, are oxygen atoms with an extra electron. The abundance of negative ions in places of nature such as near waterfalls or forests is the reason why we feel so refreshed when we visit such places. The normal ion count in fresh country air is 2,000 to 4,000 negative ions per cubic centimeter (about the size of a sugar cube) while the level is far below 200 in indoor office environment.
While ionization of the air is mandatory in many European and Russian hospitals and work places, it has only recently become popular in Asia. Now, negative ions are all the rage and consumer products, from air-conditioners / purifiers, mattress, pillows to even light bulbs and bras are packed with negative ions.
Negative ions refresh the body and enhance your overall well-being. Various studies have shown that negative ions help:
- Capture heavy metal ions
- Activate cells, purify the blood, stabilize the nervous system and strengthen the immune system
- Act as an analgesic to relieve pain, lethargy and also deodorizes your body
- Improves your relaxation and sleep
How Negative Ions Work - Neutralizing Pollutants
When released into the air, negative ions quickly attach themselves to bad airborne particles - dust, smog, human and animal dander, smoke, allergens and pollution. These particles become too heavy and fall to the ground.
The creation of negative ions always result in the production of ozone. Ozone is three molecules of oxygen electrically bonded together which has an oxidizing effect on pollution. This oxidation results in the pollution being broken up on a molecular level into its basic chemical constituents. This neutralizes the harmful aspects of these chemicals. Ion testers have proven that Kinohimitsu detox patches contain the same amount of negative ions as mountains and forests.
