Tree Essence or Wood Vinegar
This high quality product contains over 200 natural raw materials. Quality woods and bamboo are used including oak trees grown at Naraken in Japan. All come from a renewable source of wood that is harvested in an environmentally friendly way. From ancient times in Japan, wood was burnt and the art of making charcoal by wood distilation was developed. From the charcoal kiln, smoke billows upward. When this smoke is cooled and condensed, a thick brown /black liquid results. This liquid is raw pyroligneous acid (wood vinegar). This acid has been shown to warm the body, activate the skin, moisturize and act as an antibacterial.

From this raw material, further refining is carried out to remove the tar and any other undesirable elements. The result is a beautiful liquid of a pale yellow color (very weak tea). This liquid is then aged for up to a year to produce the final high quality wood vinegar that can be consumed as a health tonic. It is condensed five times and contains no synthetic vinegar or starch. After the initial extraction process, the extract is dried for a period of six months. It is then filtered four times using the highest quality Umbamegashi-Binchou Charcoal . It is then dried one more time for an additional six months before it can be considered for use. This process yields a very concentrated extract with an extremely high level of purity. Wood vinegar and bamboo extract are naturally condensed 5 times until both become a powder. This drying phase lasts for a period of over 8 months and makes for an exceptional purity of product. Then finally this essence, after a last quality control test, goes into the Acuped Detox Foot Patch. Additionally, the quantity of this powder for this product has been increased from a conventional 3.2g to 4.0g. Other food pad products contains starch powder in order to maximum profit and also differ in terms of quality of ingredients and length of preparation.

ACUPED TEST RESULTS

If a tincture of iodine is added to the sap sheets in order to test the purity of the products. Product from company A(KINOTAxxxx) and B(Netteruxxxx) will change their color, but Acuped DeTox Foot Patch does not.

Research conducted by two Japanese doctors over a 26 years period have unlocked a beneficial mystery behind the longevity and homeostasis (enhanced state of wellness and resistance to disease) of trees. They showed Tree Essence has tremendous absorption qualities and a positive effect on many functions of the body.

Tree Essence, or pyroligneous acid, is a sap extracted from tree cells. It exhibits exceptional permeability and sterilizing properties. Dehydrated tree saps infiltrate, absorb, detoxify, and sterilize. This is the basis of their ability to assist in disease prevention through reduction of body toxicity. The Eucalyptus tree, for example, is probably the most powerful antiseptic in its class as ozone is formed upon exposure to air. It has a proven disinfectant action destroying unhealthy flora and microbes. This tree grows to over 350 feet and is amongst the tallest trees in the world. To provide enough water to it's upper most part, it has an amazing capacity to absorb water.

The tree ability to purify large amounts of ground water through the roots into high quality water transported into the trunk and leaves, as well as harnessing the absorbing and detoxifying power of the wood sap, made the sap a natural ingredient for human use. It radiates a fine fragrance and has a sterilization effect to its surroundings.
