I am always very suspicious of any product that promises to remove "toxins" because toxins in one of those words that sounds very impressive until you realize that it doesn't really mean anything. In the blog for his podcast, Brain Dunning gives a very plausible explanation for how products like these seem to work. He suggests that they work mainly through exfoliation: " So it's a given that the pads will look brown when peeled from your foot, exactly like any adhesive tape would; though this effect is much less dramatic than depicted on the TV commercials, depending on how dirty your feet are. And, as they predict, this color will diminish over subsequent applications, as fewer and fewer of your dead, dirty skin cells remain."

Cover any part of the body and it will sweat when you sleep, so that's how they "work." They can be used on a 1-week-old and you will get the same result.
What are shock absorbent materials?
Depending on the item.Bubble wrapFoamStyrofoamspongeThere are a few of shock absorbent items you can use! I made the inside of a roller skate using these items and won the E-Cybermission contest! Hopefully these items work. :)
What makes absorbent work?
Absorbents work by having a high surface area and porosity, allowing them to capture and retain liquids or gases. The absorbent material's structure and chemical properties enable it to attract and hold molecules of the substance being absorbed. This process helps prevent spills or leaks and aids in cleanup and containment efforts.

Why do soft absorbent materials work best in petrifying springs?
Soft absorbent materials work best in petrifying springs because they are able to soak up the mineral-rich waters slowly, giving the minerals more time to deposit and solidify on the material's surface. This process allows for the formation of intricate and detailed mineral structures, resulting in the petrified appearance of the material.
