Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Bio Qure Foot Pad?
They are small cloth pads filled with scientifically selected natural herbs that are made from bamboo and wood vinegar’s, houttuynia cordata, tourmalines, chitosan, loquat leaves, dextrin, vitamin C, and vegetable fiber.  Over a period of time, Japanese medical investigators researched materials that had the ability to draw impurities from the body's lymph nodes.  Clinical testing proved their worth, and they have now been introduced to the world outside of Japan, where they have sold millions to health seeking adults.

How are these Foot Pads used?
They are placed on the arches of your feet, either on one foot or both, just before going to sleep at night.  Each pad comes to you with a paper-covered adhesive plaster that securely keeps the pad in place while you sleep. In the morning, you simply remove and discard the pad(s), which will be filled with impurities, as shown in the before-and-after-photos.  You will be having an unusually refreshing night's sleep.

What are the Impurities they draw out?
Every body is different and the impurities differ. However, one can expect to see noxious toxins that have been identified from countless tests as mercury, nickel, Arsenic, asbestos, benzene, methyl and isopropyl alcohol’s, cadmium, aluminum, thallium, copper, lead, dyes, and others.  You will be very surprised at knowing that these discolored and moist toxins were present in your body and were being removed. More, you will already feel better, just knowing that you have embarked on a body cleansing adventure.

For how long do I have to use them to be "Cleansed"?
The Japanese scientists suggest using one pad on each foot for one week, and then on each foot alternatively for the rest of one month. However, each body is different, and you may notice the pads becoming less filled with toxins and becoming lighter in color. If so, you can discontinue their use, or you may want to try them on your heels, instead of the arches.  Or, on any parts of your body for pains. They are effective for lower back, shoulder pain, etc. You will be the best one to determine which locations to treat.

What symptoms suggest using Bio Qure Foot Pads?
First of all, everyone carries toxins in their bodies, more or less.   The more you carry, the worse you feel. The less, the better.  Symptoms that prompt use of the footpads include poor digestion and constipation, too much gas, fatigue, headaches, body odor, bad breath, depression, weight gain.... toxins are the cause. Benefits will be very evident by improving your general health, better digestion and metabolism, joint pain relieve, enhanced quality of sleep, and greater energy.  Your own body will respond to its improvements.

What benefits can I expect from using Bio Qure Foot Pads?
First of all, you will find that you awake in the morning feeling more energetic and ready-to-go. Then, after you have completed the first cleansing, you will experience less colds, less pain and swelling if you have had any, less frequent headaches, and just feel healthier.  If you have been suffering with other problems, they may just disappear. You will have rid your body of those toxins that have been a drag. All in all, you will just feel better longer.

Explain lymph nodes and lymph fluids.
Lymph is the name given to the fluid that flows throughout the entire lymphatic system, the purpose of which is to cleanse the blood from infectious agents. It works like a body filter system, with small vessels (lymphatic) that are linked with the spleen, a large lymph gland.  The lymph glands produce lymphocytes, a type of white blood cells. These recognize and identify foreign cells, agents and foreign substances (toxins) that participate in your body's immune system, and defend against the diseases and infections that they carry.  They also act as barriers to the spread of infection because the toxic agents lead to diseases and system malfunctions. The purpose of the lymphatic system glands is to help produce some of the white blood cells and antibodies an aids the lymphatic system in its functions.

Why are Bio Qure Foot Pads less expensive than others?
A simple answer. We are a direct importer from a Japanese producer of foot pads, where the packaging is also made in Japan...no expensive multicolor boxes or cans, just simple plastic envelopes to keep the footpads clean, sanitary and protected. We do not have agents and are not part of a multi-level marketing operation, with commissions paid to scores of subagents. We sell direct to our customers, keep marketing costs to a minimum, and work on a smaller markup.  It is all in the way we do business, to pass the savings onto our customers.

What are the potential side effects from using Bio Qure Foot Pads?
To the best of our knowledge, none, because we do not know, nor have we ever heard of anyone having side effects. The only possible adverse effect that we know of is a possible allergy to the 1% of Chitosan, made from shellfish.  We are not aware of any reaction, but would like user to be aware of the this before purchasing.

Can they be used on other parts of the body, and if so, which?
Bio Qure Foot pads can be used over many parts of the body, but work best over blood-rich areas, like the extremities - hands, feet, backs of knees, temple, neck, spine, and lower parts of the back.  They can be worn directly over painful or swollen areas, but not over open wounds..  You might try the footpads over areas of your own body where you experience a disorder.  We have yet to hear of any problems, but the countless testimonials we receive attest to their safety.
