I demonstrated the PFAS (polyfluroryl-alkyl substances) come out of the body during ionic foot bath. Introduction

Polyfluoryl-alkyl Substances (PFAS) represent 15,000 different variations of long chains of fluoride, a known neurotoxin, that bioaccumulate in plants and animals. In humans, they have been associated with kidney cancer, increased cholesterol, and thyroid problems to name a few. PFAS is commonly referred to as “forever chemicals” due to the fact they stay in the body from 3-27 years, depending on the form. Ongoing bioaccumulation risks remain for those working in industries with frequent exposure, dump sites, contaminated water supplies, food packaging, painting, electroplating, carpet installation, carpet treatment, serving as a firefighter, working with ski wax, waterproofing material and construction materials. Public awareness has not yet caught up to the existing science and there is a paucity of recommendations available for the informed consumer.

The available data for daily exposure for the general population to PFAS comes out of Canada and Norway. Daily consumption was 90% dietary with intake of 73 ng/day, on par with dust and air inhalation exposure. A follow-up study combined types of PFAS and estimated daily consumption as high as 250 ng per day. This study aims to validate ionic foot bath treatments remove PFAS from the human body, paving the way to correlate with improved health outcomes.
