He may sound crazy but he's right & has a point.. Look at how healthy the kids in the villages are, OK we all believe they are poor and suffering, but they get the last laugh in their adulthood. While the top notch are spending millions on treatment they are busy going bout their natural healthy lively hood .so let's not brush off this wise doctor..

[@Fred-O-86]

Village kids being healthy has a lot to do with diet and being active and lack of money to eat rich unhealthy foods. You can still get kids in the village who are not traditional and are obese because they can afford calorie rich foods.

If I can wear shoes the whole day I will remove them and walk especially where there was concrete it was soothing I knew there was a benefit.

I believe in this.The science in foot reflexology tells it all.Different parts of our feet are linked to various parts of our body.That is why I do walk workouts for 15 minutes every day though my shoes are on but the fact that my feet are hitting the ground actively for the 15 minutes is reassuring and I believe is what partly keeps me healthy...🤔

Am a cupping therapist and I tell people the same bare foot is more healthier than shoes n sleepers on.. My reasons lies under reflexology.. When I do people reflexology I will know the exact inner problem in internal body organs...thus walking on foot will detect the same... Second reason is nerves all are triggered.. N reduces risk of stroke... Etc and if anyone fears stepping on ground I sell them reflexology shoes that works just like ground stepping.

[@beatricekibanya8281]

I agree with it ..my child nerves and muscles had to be triggered by walking on the sand after loosing all his senses after a illness ...and at first I couldn't understand his therapist from Aghakhan dar es salaam called Ayesha after months of therapy I tried walking and scrubbing his foot with sand yes ..the legs sensitivity is normal now and he can even walk ...I thank God... A person with stroke is also advised the same
