Health Issues

Why can these Flip-flops become healthful to our feet?

ADVANTAGES
Flip-flops can be very convenient especially in the Philippines. These are very light and easy to wear. Also, they are least expensive primarily because they are made for the masses. However, flip-flops nowadays are for everybody and only brand names can differentiate once status in life. The more expensive flip-flops are the most recommended since these are the ones with great durability and high quality. Another advantage is for the entrepreneurs since Filipinos have been using slippers and sandals even before modernization so they are the ideal market for this kind of business.

DISADVANTAGES

Mostly because of low quality flip-flops available in the market, there is an increase in health problems particularly body pain and feet sore. Studies shows that we tend to grip using our toes rather than using the sole of our feet which results to ankle sore, leg pain, or even more than that when done repeatedly. This is in fact very concerning to think that flip-flops are open enough to catch dirt and infections direct to our feet. Also, flip-flops have a spongy sole so it cannot support the feet entirely.

Experts advise that we should only use flip-flops in moderation and considering such as your primary footwear can lead to long-term health problems. Here are sites that feature the hazards of flip-flops that you might consider giving attention to:
