The Aqua Solution - Scam Bam Thank You Mam

Probably someone - or maybe several someone's are going to have a nasty reaction to this.  Carefully analyzing the various articles I have on the the subject of Aqua Chi and so forth I discovered this little gem of covert disgusting honesty buried in the midst of a  bunch of, yes, blather.  Follow along as I translate the article into English.

Around 2004 or as early as 2002, the American people saw an astonishing alternative health method that involves immersing one’s foot into a tub of salted water where it will be subjected to low voltage current which purportedly sucks the accumulated toxins out of the body via the 4,000 odd pores found on each foot.

It was like magic! Like a dialysis machine, the aqua healing detoxification method was very impressive because there is a manifestation of the supposed toxins sucked from the body. To the afflicted, it was like cheating on  their diet, akin to wolfing down hamburgers when everybody is sticking to salads. The followers even claimed that it was indeed the sloth’s way to detoxification. There was no annoying diet system, no grueling exercise plan, no nothing. Nada. You simply sit there for the full 30 minutes while the aqua healing solutions suck the toxins as well as the cholesterol (manifesting as slimy blobs that float on the surface) from your body.

Sounds real good, right? Man, we love this kind of stuff.  But wait ————

If only it was true.

You see, the aqua healing detoxification was just a simple electrolysis procedure that uses two electrodes, an iron catalyst, and water. What takes place right before everyone’s awed eyes is just a chemical reaction due to the current passing from a positive electrode to the water to the negative electrode. And if somewhere along the way there is an iron catalyst, it reacts with water to form a precipitate commonly known as rust.

Oh, gee. We've been had again. Damn. Never fear though, clever distortion merrily creates a new and even better explanation (better since it's impossible to disprove).

Even with the hoax exposed, that didn’t deter promoters of the aqua healing solutions. Now, under a new product name and a new technical rationale that lies protected within the boundaries of biochemistry, promoters of these aqua healing solutions re-enter the alternative medicine scene. Gone now was the extraordinary but fundamental basis of aqua healing solutions, which is detoxification. Now, it is rebalancing of the body’s energies due to the ionized bath. Somewhere along the lines you can also get the hidden message that it still does detoxification but that is due to the wondrous rebalanced human body’s response.  Now it is getting rid of the toxins itself via the liver, kidneys and human excrement. But that is of course after the treatment.

Well, you are now blathered, cosmically. Ya wanna try the magical footsie detoxer, weight loss colon cleanser and rust maker, no problem. It probably won't actually hurt you, but it won't let you gorge with impunity on Italian sausage pizzas either.
