We recommend applying a patch to each of soles of your clean feet and leave it on for a period of 8-10 hours before removing (this is why people often put them on before going to bed!). The sachets in your kit have two patches in each - one to use for each foot, each night. Unlike some other brands, our patches are in one simple easy-to-apply piece, so simply remove the adhesive film and place on the centre of each of the soles of your feet before jumping into bed and getting some sleep.

When you wake up, remove the patches and dispose of them - they are not reusable. You may want to give your feet a little rinse to remove any remaining residue, then pat dry. Full instructions are in the How To Use section of our 5-Day Detox Kit product listing.

Our 5-Day Detox Kits are just that – intended for 5 days of use, however if you still feel that you have symptoms of toxin overload (which include: fatigue, bloating, brain fog, headache, swelling, moodiness) then you should continue until symptoms subside. We would recommend up to 10 days, but then break for 14 days before embarking on another detox cycle.  

What ingredients are in your detox tea?

Our all-natural ingredients in our Morning Sunshine Detox Tea include: Ginger, Green Tea, Burdock Root and Dandelion Root. We know that some people can feel nauseous with Green Tea (especially in the mornings), which is why we’ve purposefully added Ginger (because it’s both delicious known to eliminate nausea – eg used for motion sickness).

Our bodies all respond to toxin overload differently, but if you have one or some of the below symptoms, it could be a sign of toxicity and a strong signal that a cleansing detox would be a positive solution. Symptoms could include:

  • Bloating and abdominal swelling
  • Lack of attention / easily distracted
  • Poor memory retention / brain fog
  • Mood swings and emotional
  • Bad digestion and irregular bowel movement
  • Picking up colds and bugs easily – poor immune system
  • Skin irritations.

Why do you put detox foot patches on at night?

Our bodies are incredible, natural ‘flushing’ machines! We recommend using the Detox Foot Patches at night because this is also when our body (particularly our liver which is the main detoxifying organ) does most of its work. Based on the traditional Chinese Organ Body Clock, between 1-3am, toxins are released from your body and blood is filtered. At around 4am, your lungs are detoxing and between 5-7am is when your large intestine is releasing, eliminating toxins in waste. By using our patches at night, we’re supporting your natural system to eliminate toxins when it’s doing most of it’s work!
