How Effective Are Herbal Foot Detox Baths?
Recently I've been very puffy like almost like I'm retaining water. I thought about taking a diuretic/water pill but someone suggested an herbal foot bath to draw out toxins would be more effective. Wondering how well they work & which might be one of the better ones to do. Thanks!! Also would doing it at home yourself be fine or would you suggest having a professional do it?
Wow, I'm amazed that this question keeps coming up. I haven't been on Y!A in almost a year, and people still ask if these silly detox footbaths work. Clearly you didn't use the search feature either.
No, they don't. They are a total scam, and there is no way by any scientific principles they could work.
If you are retaining water there may be problems with your kidneys or electrolytes, and that should be investigated by a properly trained health care professional. Women often retain fluid around the time of their menstrual cycles, and this is normal physiology.
EDIT
Almost every single word in ~*Tiff*~'s answer is complete nonsense. An assistant to a chiropractor has even less scientific credibility than a chiropractor...which is none.
It is a myth that you should be drinking a 1/2 gallon of water a day, and in fact it may be dangerous to do that. People have died from hyponatremia.
