Your body uses sweat as a method of removing urea - the reason sweat marks are sometimes yellow. So your feet sweat all day and night and the pad is loaded with an indicator that changes color to black when the pH becomes more acidic (urea is acidic)."

haha wait so all that color that gets on them is just an indicator from the pad itself!? haha they make you think its all the shit in your body...

thats basically glorified litmus paper...
