Is walking barefoot outside your home actually have health benefits?

[Anonymous]

Yes it has health benefits

No that’s a farce

Other?

[mermaidcancermoon]

Technically there is. Those who walk barefoot tend to have softer feet than those who wear shoes 16/7. Calluses form from restriction and excessive moisture friction. Open air reduces hard feet. Subtle things like peeling comes from health conditions. Open air also reduces fungal infections since they rely on moisture and darkness. So... barefoot is healthier. But of course I wouldn't leave my home to walk in public barefoot. I dont trust the cleanliness of public places. I mop my floors twice a week.

[Asker]

First of all it’s really funny that this comment is left by someone with feet as their pp, I trust you r an expert on feet hehe.. I would imagine feet get calluses when walking or rough surfaces though, no? Why do you have your feet as your profile picture if u don’t mind me asking?

[mermaidcancermoon]

Walking on concrete and rocks likely could cause calluses. But household surfaces not really. I posted my feet because I didn't want to post my face but also didn't want to use a random background picture.

[Asker]

Oh ok! U have good looking 👣

[WhiteBoyChill]

Ya they do look good

[BlueScorpio]

I don't really think so, but I did a lot as a kid. Today it's probably not a good idea since you can step on sharp rocks, glass, poop, or a needle. Unless you're in your own backyard I wouldn't recommend it.

[Asker]

Poop hahah so true tho

[ArtieWhitefox]

Being naked has health benefits to a point. Everything can be overdone. Devils are writing laws right now making the showing of what God made to be a bad thing. It is not good to be bare foot to long. I had to walk for a distance bare foot when I had a bike problem not able to walk in cycling shoes. I was grateful for a ride when I got one.

[Asker]

I agree with you about the first part.. God made us the way we are and nowadays people are going against it

[WindAtMyBack]

I've gone barefoot most of my life. I seriously doubt if there are any health benefits. I just prefer to be barefoot. Shoes are really restricting to me.

Your feet don't look like you go barefoot much. The bottom of my feet are like leather. But then I've been barefoot for most of the last 50+ years.

[Asker]

What do you mean like leather?

[WindAtMyBack]

I mean my feet are very tough and callused.

[Asker]

Why not just file them

[PetiteBabe64]

Whole Point of walking barefoot is to benefit which is making your feet stronger. You don’t file your feet When they are strong unless you Like to suffer.

[WindAtMyBack]

I do file my feet sometimes, but only in the winter when it's very dry and they crack. I don't do it very often. It defeats the purpose of having callus in the first place. Without them my feet would be too sensitive to walk on anything outside.

[Asker]

Why would anyone want their feet to be callused?

[WindAtMyBack]

For the same reason as wanting calluses anywhere else. It protects the skin. For example if someone is a carpenter and uses a hammer all day, they will get calluses on their hands. Without the calluses to protect their skin they'd get blisters and start bleeding in no time.

A guitar player develops calluses on their fingers for the same reason. Until they get calluses their fingers will get too painful to play.

Hikers wear hiking boots, but they also need to develop calluses on their feet. Otherwise their feet will blister and become too painful to walk.

[Asker]

No I agree with the logic behind calluses biologically but why go through that when we can just wear shoes? What’s the benefit?

[PetiteBabe64]

Shoes change your feet and not in a good way. Many people have feet problems because of Shoes.

[Asker]

@petiteBabe64 do you walk barefoot on a regular basis (outside)?

[PetiteBabe64]

Yes not anywhere in particular but yes I walk barefoot I do run and I have ran Barefoot before. I can run Faster when barefoot. I have been chased by men before when I was running barefoot and they didn’t catch me.

[Asker]

Chased by men? WTH! Who were they and what did they want

[lightbulb27]

probably does, it's natural connection to the earth... I've heard of "earth grounding". Is that true science, no idea... but maybe a placebo effect in calming you at minimum.

I will caution you to health risks as well. I did this once and stepped on a large thorn. That was pure misery.

[D_Bone_Steak]

My Great Grand Mother used to make me go barefoot which sucked. I think it's why I naturally walk in a tip toe way. Mojave Desert... so rocks and shit and getting stung by fire ants. The reason she gave was she didn't want me to catch athlete's foot.

[Julie_TS]

I love being barefoot... inside, outside, driving, etc. However, I have no idea about the health benefits of it.

#barefootasoftenaspossible

[Asker]

I love being barefoot too and I like how feet look generally if they’re taken care of. I think they can be hot as hell as weird as that might make me

[slatyb]

Walking barefoot in most places is more dangerous than healthy. Too much garbage laying around that can cause injury.

[Asker]

Maybe if you live in NYC or Chicago or LA

[Summeroflove]

Nope. I hate it. Feels weird. Step in something... Hopefully not dog shit. Gotten stung before by bees and wasps. Nope not for me

[Lyndsielee666]

I have to wear shoes where I’m at 🤮 so much trash

[Asker]

Yuck same here

[abc3643]

Not at my house. Our driveway consists of gravel. My backyard is dying grass and dog and horse poop.

[Paul09]

Yeah, I hate wearing shoes all day. When I get home no shoes, my feet say thank you. It's just natural. So of course it benefits all of us

[Asker]

True

[Iron_Man]

If you find out any health benefits, let me know

[Asker]

Lol will do

[Iron_Man]

👍….:

[Fuentes]

I would not do it, people drop needles in places now

[Asker]

Why would they do that?

[Fuentes]

Crackheads roam everywhere now

[michael00007]

Yes they say it pricks your pressure points due to the gravel and stones.

[Asker]

I’d rather get a foot massage for that lol

[michael00007]

Not as same a stone pricking your leg lol

[PainusNdeeAnus]

Do y’all not realize our feet were never meant to be shaped the way they currently are?

[Asker]

I do that’s why I’m asking

[PainusNdeeAnus]

Looking at these responses I don’t think they understand that

[Asker]

Facts

[WhiteBoyChill]

I think it might. I just wouldn’t do it anywhere in public.

[Asker]

Me neither

[Anonymous]

Yes, afaik. But on grass and in the nature, where it's safe to do.

[AddylynnNightingale]

With all the junk people leave on the floor? Nope!

[Asker]

Yuck and yes

[summiter]

I do it all the time in the warmer months.

[MrTaboo]

Because we were made to bot wear shoes.

[Asker]

That was back in the day but didn’t our feet change ever since?

[MrTaboo]

Only because we changed our shoes. My feet stop hurting when I started wearing minimalist shoes. They're like flats for guys.

That's why dar more guys have far issues than women. Women wear flats or sandles more than guys.

[Asker]

Wearing converse shoes should be equivalent to walking barefoot then if that’s the logic but trust me most women f their feet up by wearing heels and funky ass shoes

[MrTaboo]

Yes some women do. I'm just using what orthopedic doctors say. 80% of messed up feet are men. The 20% that are women, do mess up their feet by wearing crap shoes for looks

[Dinosaursandanime65]

It can make them stronger?

[BLP11520]

Dangerous where i live... insects

[Anonymous]
