Summary

Makers of ionic foot baths claim that their machines can eliminate heavy metals from the body. Researchers at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine are evaluating the ability of an ionic foot bath to help eliminate heavy metals from the body by rigorously testing the machine under controlled conditions. The machine will first be tested without feet under normal operating conditions and again after operation under normal conditions with foot immersion.
