Hey guys

just wondering if anyone has ever used the kinoki foot pads advertised on TV? Do they acutally work? Do you feel refreshed? I want to buy it but I don't know if it'll actually work. It sounds too good to be true. Thanks!

I thought these pads were worth a try, and I used them for several nights. The pad was stained the next morning, but I realized soon that I could pour clear water on the pad and get the same effect. I've done further research and found that most "experts" (whoever they are) say the product is just a simple chemical reaction to your foot sweating under the non-breathable pad. My advice is to at least do your own, outside research before buying. I got no benefit from Kinoki.

i actually googled around about these because i was curious as to whether or not they were a scam. people that did buy them stated that if they opened a pad and didnt even put it on their skin it changed colors just as if they had applied one to the skin. also, apparently the company has another sister company or related company that was pretty shady. it either was being investigated by the BBB for false claims about their products results, or wording of the packaging. i cant remember which one. but, still pretty shady.

Anonymous - It Worked

Thank you Kinoki, your product protects me from toxins. Being a magic user I am particularly vulnerable to toxins since I have low hitpoints. By placing these on my feet I can confidently attack rogues with poisoned blades without worry. Thank you Kinoki, because of you I was able to reach level 12!oh and my feet smelllll GREAT!!!

P.S. I am a caster and tend to wear light colored cloth robes, I prefer white. My robes use to be dingy all of the time and I couldn't figure out why. I now know it was all the toxins in my body seeping into my robes. I had always put off wearing my +8 magic +2 health +2 speed robes because I didn't want to ruin them. I can say I have been wearing my new robes and look fantastic. I think the elf across the way has noticed me. Any way, thank you again. My life is vastly improved from your man pads.

this one cracked me up

Yeah those people who said that the product didn't work at all are idiots, besides why would you even expect that product to help if you had to many toxins in your body. Why would you even try this product if you had no toxins... Idiots!

But this product did work superb for me!

I didn't have to many toxins in my body just the right moderate amount of toxins in my body, so it cleared up all those horrible symptoms within weeks!

Before I used this product I had HIV and I had been diagnosed w/ brain cancer...

Now THANKS to Kinoki i've been miraculously cured of both diseases!


Thank You Kinoki you've saved my life


LOLLLLL

Those foot pads are essentially a scam as many people have stated above. The pads will react and turn dark regardless of what surface they are stuck to, so don't bother wasting your money. There are lots of ways of detoxing your body, this is just super appealing to people because it involves no work whatsoever.

My aunt bought this not too long ago and I tried them to see if they were a scam. Some of the stuff the lady said was true, like feeling refreshed, but maybe that's just me. =/ I don't really know if it helps you lose weight because I didn't try out the whole box. And before my aunt bought these, I thought the pads were made of dark sweat, but it's actually filled with this white powder thing. I forgot what it's called. I opened the pad once to see what was in it. O_O

After I had on the pad, it felt really...weird. I'm not 100% sure if everything is true because I only tried it once. Those reviews are just...wow.

I hate the smell of Kinoki Foot Pads. >_<

@azngel - HAHA! yeaaaahea hey guys, you can be magically cured of HIV and BRAIN CANCER with these crap footpads! Because HIV and brain cancer just instantly disappear like that! What IDIOTS these other people are, saying that the foot pads don't work, because they obviously rid of HIV!

This is a scam, just google the foot pads and you'll find lots of forums buzzing with angry users. I even think 20/20 did a show on this, with a bunch of people coming up and saying how these were a complete SCAM and how that the company that manufactures Kinoki didn't return any of their phone calls, etc. mellow.gif

@DLITEvirus - Your "refreshing" feeling is the Placebo Effect, because the foot pads really do NOTHING for your health. It's just a chemical reaction that takes place with the pads...nothing happens other than that.

DON'T PURCHASE KINOKI, PERIOD. Unless you enjoy wasting your money! biggrin.gif

If you feel great after using Kinoki, that's probably the placebo effect. It's all in your head. They didn't even elaborate on how it absorbs toxins out of you.

DON'T BUY ANY FOOT PADS. they're all scams! 20/20 did this whole like review on them. you see black stuff on the pads the next morning but its not 'toxins'.
It’s not easy for me to say this, so listen to me carefully. You just might hear it. I love you.
