One of the parts of our bodies which receive the least amount of attention is out feet. We spend time at the beauty salon tending to our hair or buying lavish lotions for our faces but how much to we really care for our feet? When you have healthy feet, it is much easier to enjoy an all-around healthy body.
A lot of people do not realize how amazing their feet really are. Our feet have evolved into our multi-functioning system used for travel. The human foot has more neuro receptors than anywhere else in our body with over 200,000 nerve endings. The reason for this is to tell your brain the type of ground your are walking on.
In the past years, shoe companies have told us that the more support and cushioning our shoes have, the better it is for our backs, joints, and muscles however the opposite is true. When it comes to shoes and sole construction, less is more. The problem with large amounts of cushioning and padding in the soles of our shoes is that it blocks the neuro receptors located on the bottom of our feet from signaling our brains.
The footwear you buy should be used to protect your feet but should not impede on your foot's natural stride ability and should allow your feet to feel the ground beneath them. Your feet do not require unnecessary support and cushioning, therefore you should consider buying footwear that is close to being barefoot.
There are barefoot running shoes used for athletic purposes. If you are looking for a casual shoe that has limited amount of cushioning you can find all-natural genuine leather soft soled moccasins with no foam insole.
