Study 3	0.1560 (156 ppb)	0.2020 (202 ppb)	0.0460 (46 ppb)	29.49%

*Before = “No Feet” which represents the concentration of the specific metal/mineral tested from a water sample that included a 30 minute “Cleansing” and 10 minute “Energy” session with no human contact. Feet and hands were not present in the water during the 40 minute session.

**After – represents the concentration of the specific metal/mineral tested from a water sample (Study 1, Study 2, and Study 3) that included a 30 minute “Cleansing” and 10 minute “Energy” session with human contact.

“Study 1” represents an individual in their mid 50’s and in good health.
“Study 2” represents an individual in their mid 40’s and in good health.
“Study 3” represents an individual in their early 30’s and in excellent health.

Control Factors

- The same Lectro Chi Pro Energy foot spa was used for all treatments.
- Each session utilized 1 gallon of distilled water purchased from the same water distillery.
- 1 oz. of Dead Sea salt was used during each session.
- Each session was performed at 2.5 amps.
- A new water module was used for each session.
- Each session utilized 30 minutes on the “Cleansing” setting and 10 minutes on the “Energy” setting.
- TraceAnalysis, Inc. - 6701 Aberdeen Avenue, Suite 9, Lubbock, TX 79424 performed all sample testing.

ppb – Parts per Billion
mg/L – Parts per Million (mg/L is equitable to ppm)

“Study 1” returned 0.1970 mg/L (197 ppb) of phosphorus (P) and had increased phosphorus (P) concentration of 0.0410 mg/L (41 ppb). The ending result for “Study 1” is a 26.28% increase of phosphorus (P) concentration found in the session water.

“Study 2” returned 0.2280 mg/L (228 ppb) of phosphorus (P) and had increased phosphorus (P) concentration of 0.0720 mg/L (72 ppb). The ending result for “Study 2” is a 46.15% increase phosphorus (P) concentration found in the session water.

“Study 3” returned 0.2020 mg/L (202 ppb) of phosphorus (P) and had increased phosphorus (P) concentration of 0.0460 mg/L (46 ppb). The ending result for “Study 3” is a 29.49% increase of phosphorus (P) concentration found in the session water.

“Study 1” returned 0.1970 mg/L (197 ppb) of phosphorus (P) and had increased phosphorus (P) concentration of 0.1969 mg/L (196.9 ppb). The ending result for “Study 1” is a 1,969.00% increase of phosphorus (P) concentration found in the session water compared to the maximum safe amount of phosphorus (P) in drinking water.

“Study 2” returned 0.2280 mg/L (228 ppb) of phosphorus (P) and had increased phosphorus (P) concentration of 0.2279 mg/L (227.9 ppb). The ending result for “Study 2” is a 2,279.00% increase of phosphorus (P)) concentration found in the session water compared to the maximum safe amount of phosphorus (P) in drinking water.
“Study 3” returned 0.2020 mg/L (202 ppb) of phosphorus (P) and had increased phosphorus (P) concentration of 0.2019 mg/L (201.9 ppb). The ending result for “Study 3” is a 2,019.00% increase of phosphorus (P) concentration found in the session water compared to the maximum safe amount of phosphorus (P) in drinking water.

Chemical and Physical Information for Phosphorus

Phosphorus is one of the 20 most abundant elements in the solar system, and the 11th most abundant element in the earth's crust. However, it forms only about 0.1% of the rocks that make up the bulk of the crust and is thus classed as a trace element.

Phosphorus is a component of DNA, RNA, and ATP.

Phosphorus is an essential element for all living cells.

The most common commercial use of phosphorus-based chemicals is the production of fertilizers.

Phosphorus compounds are also widely used in explosives, nerve agents, friction matches, fireworks, pesticides, toothpaste and detergents.

Route of Exposure - Phosphorus

Agriculture (pesticides, fertilizer, factory farms).

Sprawl and Urban Areas (road runoff, lawn pesticides, human waste).
Naturally Occurring (naturally present but increased for lands denuded by sprawl, agriculture, or industrial development).Sources: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Health Effects - Phosphorus
Phosphorus is a component (phosphates) of fertilizer and manure, and a pollutant in municipal wastewater discharges. Potential health impacts associated with phosphorus include cardiovascular or blood toxicity, gastrointestinal or liver toxicity, kidney toxicity, musculoskeletal toxicity, neurotoxicity, reproductive toxicity, respiratory toxicity, and skin sensitivity.
