Hello everyone!
It has been quite a long time since I have done #triedntested series where I actually try something new and then comment about it through my experience.
The last time I wrote about this with a physical gadget was testing my double-deck egg steamer bought from Shopee, which is still faithfully running well after 9 months. Not too bad for a product from China.
So what am I testing today?
yes... yes... my feet need some pampering. It looks horrible
Behold, the apparently 5 star rated As seen on TV KINOKI DETOX FOOT PATCH that was widely introduced by many people.
It started with more than RM10 a box; and now, I got to purchase this in a bulk of a 100 with a better price.
One of the reason that I have tested on this is because we all knew that the foot detox patches cost rather expensive when it was first launch; and since then, there were a lot of compatible alternative products in the market.
My brother recently acquired from Thailand during his short holiday with his family, and suffering from nerve damage due to diabetic condition, he was recommended to try that out.
He has confined to my parents that after trying consistently for 5 days, his legs were less painful when he walks and he does not need to add on pain killers besides his other batch of medication for his weakened body.
I bought a similar thai food detox for my parents and though it doesn't work tremendously well for my consistent foot aching father, but my mom, because of her medication (for various pains and problems), has helped her quite a lot as she testified her knees were "less tight and painful" every morning.
But that brand, about RM9 a box, has limited stock and will not be able to acquire long term.
So I tested this one which offers bulk purchase with a much lesser price.
Yes...yes... another feet picture... I know, I will pamper my feet more in the future
Here you can see that in order for the result to be effective, you are required to paste on both your feet for at least 6 - 8 hours before bedtime; and so this was the next morning before I take them out for observation.
Unlike the other type of foot detox patches from Japan, apparently this could be using Korean recipe (from the Korean prints on the patch), it is less (herbal) smelly than the rest.
I have noticed, like the kinohimitsu foot detox patch (which is bigger, smellier and more expensive) I tried before, still works well extracting whatever excessive water retention / excessive toxin.
Let's see how I do in its description:
Screen captured from Shopee
Well, what do you guys think I have? Black or Brown black?
Through the naked eye it does seemed dark brown, but it definitely is not deep black with red spots. So I might fall under the body weak section, since I am still under antibiotic treatment for my massive fever blister.
Other than that?
I must say that I have been having lack of sleep / have not been sleeping well at night and ended up feeling my neck very strained; however this morning when I woke up, I realised that have less of that neck strain and shoulder tiredness.
(Also probably because I was testing another gimmick, which I will write a review later in the future)
And to another surprise, which I forgot to take a picture of it, I think I lost some water retention weight from my body when I realised I am slightly below my borderline weight that was determined by my doctor, 500g lesser than I last weighed 48 hours ago.
Conclusion?
For my opinion, whether we like it or not we currently live in an environment where we cannot avoid entirely any chemical intrusion / induced food; especially in this richly flavoured multi-cultural country. Even excess use of sugar and salt posses a threat to our health.
One does not need to regularly use this sort of detox patch, but according to most people, it is advised to use 5 days in a row; and I think for those who has been consuming medication for a long time, it is very good to let the toxins out and ease the internal organs (such as the liver and kidney) for a better and healthier life.
If you have read it until this very end of the post, here is a bonus for the fellow Malaysians and Malaysia expats in #teammalaysia (and its extended collaborating channels)
I have decided to conduct a raffle for this post and offer 10 pieces (5 sets) which is equivalent to 1 box for this Kinoki foot detox patch if this post is above 4 SBD by next week!
(This will cover the express postal charges + the cost of the item)
What you need to do is:
- Upvote this post (100% manual vote - without using scaling and no auto upvote from trails)
- Resteem this post
- Write a comment about what you think of this trial-and-test guide + your location.
You can also nominate to a steemian / another Malaysian if you feel he / she deserves it more than you; but you join this Lucky draw on their behalf.
Who is eligible?
Any Malaysian or Expat in Malaysia. Because I need a valid Malaysian Postal address.
So let's see if this post will round up enough for someone to try this out
(Without forking out any expenses)
Until then
Thank You for Your Time

Hi @littlenewthings I really appreciated with this article and it is so timely that I was looking for similar items for my wife. about a year ago, I brought back a pack of a sample from a China friend and gave it to my wife to use it, I pasted for her on both the foot and got exactly what you had that is black and oily residue on the pad.
But my China friend did not import them into Malaysia anymore and I have tried other brand but not the similar effect.
Yes, the trial-and-test guide indeed quite similar to what I did to my wife's foot to reduce her pain after several days of padding.
I am so glad that you brought this up and give way some piece

That is one great review of this detox patch, my friend. It looks like a good way to find out in what kind of "shape" your body is. I honestly test mine by how I feel, how my energy levels are, and how my skin looks. Just by looking at how your skin looks you can tell a lot of things.
Anyways I am not Malaysian, so I can't really participate in your contest, but I will look around the pharmacies here in Italy if they have a similar type of patches I can try to see in what kind of a shape I am in. :)
Thank you for the review, my amazing friend, have an amazing day as always. :)

Oh I do hope you will be able to find those. Try out any online stores if you have @awakentolife , otherwise if you want, you can pay for a box in SBD / STEEM and I can send it over to you via registered mail. The only disadvantage is it can get up to 21 working days but it could be in a cheaper cost.
DM me at discord if you decide to do so. Always happy to help my amazing friend here if he wants to try it out! :D
(I might consider international raffles in the future, if the winners do not mind slow mails haha)
Thanks so much for stopping by @awakentolife ! You have a wonderful day too!

Why can't you just paste it onto your foot then wear socks before you go to bed. Then discard it when you wake up?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
I don't really quite get your comment @orangila ... if I wear the socks and take the picture, probably it defeats the purpose in showing you how it should be used?
Actually a lot of people mistakenly pasted the detox patch the wrong way, hence there was no effect and they complained it is not effective; so these photos (although with its ugly feet) would have shown it very well how it was applied.
(because my dad used it wrongly for starters haha)
Thanks for stopping by.

I am not talking about photography part of it.. what I mean is that if you put it on before you sleep, you would probably be active and cause the patch to be loose... or inconvenient because you are immobile because of the patch...
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

The whole idea of attaching it before sleep is because it works best when the body is in a resting state: which is where the internal organs, such as liver and kidney starts to push out any necessary toxin out and the detox patch will play a much usable role for extracting it.
Of course, to answer to your question regarding it is loose. This batch of adhesive tapes, they are SUPER STICKY hence it will not easily fall off.
But attaching to it with lack of sleep might not promote an effective toxin extract at the end of the day.

Hello @orangila If you study body blood circulation from Google, the foot is the turning point for the blood circulation of the lower limb. I just learn that too. This quiz of @littlenewthings has a side benefit, that is understand our body system. he..he

I saw this foot patch before at a beauty fair in Thailand, whereas the Korea company introduce this to the market.
I tried the foot patch before somewhere around last year but didn't continue, and the more I use, the lesser the dark brown colour for consistently patch it every night.

You are right @joannewong , mine is starting lighter but I accidentally KO the night before and I skipped a night after 4 days.
But the good part is after 4 consecutive days my body has improved and I could actually sleep much better and wake up must better (like right now, replying before 7am haha), and that proves that this brand works. haha.
Thank you for making your time over and your valuable input!
@chloephuan93 has started hers earlier as she bought from me (pay by SBD) and she has massive water retention. You can read her account at Foot Detox Patch
and hope that she can feel better after that, especially that she is barred from strenuous exercise since her doctor said No sports and dancing for 3 months!
You three (including @aaronleang and @zord189) take a good pace on your exercise routine ya!

I wonder though, what if you just open the patch and put water on it, will it turn brown on it's own?! I hear of these patches...I want to try one too! Especially if the brown/black is real and really pulls out toxins!
I was detoxing metals and bad things by eating lots of vegetables before I started traveling. I need to find lots of vegetables in Malaysia!

well I have never really tried that but I think it will too. But the interesting part is that, the aftermath of the next day, it is not only wet, it is sticky ! It's like your body has secreted something yucky out of your body, and the patch actually work as sucking it out.
Ok, next time @aaronleang and @joannewong can take you to that salad shop they went which looks really good. haha. I want to try that too.
If you have seen the red dragon fruit, it works really well clearing your bowel's edges where normally it takes a lot of fiber drinks to do so; and it is super sweet to take.
Those can help detox a lot too. I need that as well.
Otherwise try local bananas, they have great source of potassium as well. :D
