100% Natural - 100% Safe

Kenrico Detox Foot Pads - (or Sap Sheets) are manufactured by the leading sap sheet company in Japan.  The sap sheet has achieved the consecutive position of "Number One Seller" 14 times in Japan since 1990.  They are the largest Sap Sheet Company in Japan. This company doesn't skimp on ingredients.  They only use the best quality bamboo and wood vinegar. We have the new formula detox pads.  These sap sheets contain 50% tourmaline!  Tourmaline is the ingredient that generates the negative ions and infra-red energy.

The other ingredients (besides bamboo vinegar (15%) and wood vinegar (15%)) and  Tourmaline (50%) are:  Vegetable fibre (5%), Dextrin (11%) and Dokudami:(Houttuynia Cordata),  Chitosan, Loquat Leaf, Vitamin C (at 1% each). 

Considerable research has been done on the Sap Sheets.  Kenrico is in partnership with state of the art research laboratories in the USA and Japan.  Products are tested on a yearly basis.  The research falls into four categories:

Safety - The sap sheets passed three tests: a FHSA Skin Irritation Test, a Microbial Limit Test and a Microbial Limit Validation Test.

Thermograph - Thermograph tests prove that the Sap Sheets emit far infrared rays.  Here are two before and after photographs of the infrared heat:

beginning (8:45 p.m.)

Recorded 1 minute after the sap sheet pads were taken off. Far infrared rays from the sap sheet pads left heating marks on the feet. (10:31 p.m.)

Of Course, the infra-red heat opens the pores, so the feet can easily eliminate toxins and other waste material.

Brain Wave effects -  Amazingly, Alpha brainwaves increased while using the sap sheet pads.

Control environment (no sap sheets)

Large increase in alpha brain waves while using the sap sheet.

Ions are molecules that have gained or lost an electrical charge. They are created in nature as air molecules break apart due to the sunlight, radiation, and moving air and water. You may have experienced the power of negative ions when you last set foot on the beach or walked beneath a waterfall. The air circulating in the mountains and the beach is said to contain tens of thousands of negative ions -- Much more than the average home or office building, which contain dozens or hundreds, and many register a flat zero.

Previous negative ion measurements had been done in certain places in Japan.
In regular room with windows: approximately 150 ion/cm3.
Near river: approximately 600 ion/cm3.
Near big fountain: approximately 1000 ion/cm3.
Near waterfall (half the size of Niagara): approximately 3000 ion/cm3.
Near big tourmaline stone: approximately 500 - 2000 ion/cm3.

Tourmaline appears to release negative ions.

How To Use - The sap sheet comes with a larger adhesive pad.  The adhesive pad is covered with two sections of paper.  Remove the larger bottom section of paper, and put the foil side of the sap sheet down on the adhesive, centring it, and with the top next to the smaller strip of paper still covering the adhesive.  Next, remove the smaller strip of paper, and the sap pad will be centred on the adhesive pad.  Just attach the adhesive to the soles of your feet, or anywhere else you may wish.  If you wish to stimulate certain reflex points on the bottom of the feet, then put the pad over these points.  Here is a reflexology chart of the foot.

It is easiest to apply the sap sheet, one on each foot, before bed.  You can also put the pads directly on any other part of the body to relieve problems such as muscle and joint pain, or directly over rashes.  Do not apply directly to mucous membranes or open wounds. The best detoxification effects occur on the bottom of the foot, however.

Results - Of course, the main result is the ability of the sap sheet to draw out toxins and waste from the body.  Here are some before and after photos:

The sap sheets are also reputed to relieve fatigue, joint pain, headaches, skin rashes, and many other health problems
