No, it's when she uses the jerky as eye patches that the makeup gets all messed up. MFJ If I have to be a grownup, can I at least be telekinetic too?

Has anybody actually used them? And did they > improve your health? Hi Deb, I've tried the pads and I like them. The first ones I used were the " blue " ones and I almost felt like they drained me so I only used one pad at a time. Since then I found out there are different colors with different ingredients for different purposes. To try them all out and to get a really good price go this ebay site: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ50QQfsopZ1QQsa ssZcheapdetoxpads4sale They also have a web site www.healthmarvels.net and they ship worldwide. hth, Louise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Thanks for that, Louise. The NZ site only had one type, so I was interested to see about the different types. It's also a lot cheaper (about 1/2 the price) than buying them in NZ. Cheers, deb -----Original Message----- From: thelouise03 [mailto:louise@...] Hi Deb, I've tried the pads and I like them.

In the morning, after twelve hours, the pads were predictably sticky and, well, gross looking. I also got a headache and slight nausea promptly after applying them, but I had had a long hard day and was just siting down to unwind for the night, so that may account for that. My suspicious nature whispers that these pads may be like ear cones in that when I burned an ear cone in an empty jar, it filled up with " gunk " . So what I need to do to alleviate that fear is to leave a foot pad exposed overnight and see what transpires. Tonight! Also, maybe try moistening one with some water as well, in case that's the catalyst. B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Heat might be another catalyst. Not quite sure how you'd replicate that tho. Oh, don't say that about ear candles!!

Huh. I once tried ear candles and found exactly the opposite. My ears, which had been extremely waxy for most of my life (and after to trying the candles too -- it wasn't until I made some major dietary changes that they got a lot less waxy) cleaned up dramatically when I used the candles and took quite awhile to plug up again. I also burned one candle by itself out in the air to see if it was just a sham, and nothing accumulated in the candle. I didn't stick the bottom in a jar, though. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't stick the bottom in a jar, though. , I'm not sure about the candles. Your story is very interesting to me. I mean, just because the candle filled with identical junk in an empty jar doesn't mean the chimney effect doesn't still do something beneficial to the ear. So if there was no accumulation on your candle in the air, then what happened to the burnt candle material do you reckon? It's canvas and beeswax, right? Where'd it go?

It's canvas and beeswax, right? Where'd it go? No, I think the ones I had were cheesecloth and beeswax. The woman who gave them to me (she wanted me to attest to their effectiveness or lack thereof) said it's crucial to get the right ratio of wax to cloth and that most ear candles have too much wax. At any rate, it just seemed to burn off. The candle I burned on its own didn't accumulate anything at all. Good beeswax candles are drip-free, aren't they? - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
