activated Charcoal powder
Charcoal can be produced from a variety of sources, including peat, coal, wood, coconut shell, and petroleum. It has been used medicinally for gastrointestinal ailments such as upset stomach and flatulence. Activated charcoal has been reported to be effective at absorbing potential toxins and poisons after accidental ingestion, but it is important to seek medical attention first if you suspect this. Charcoal is 'activated' by increasing its surface area via heating or with an activating agent, like zinc chloride.

- How it works: Activated charcoal powder has been traditionally used to support healthy digestive function. Its porous texture allows it to attract and trap toxins and gases that are typically present in the GI tract and carry them safely out of the body. In this way, activated charcoal can help to alleviate uncomfortable gas and bloating caused by gas-producing foods. Our Activated Charcoal is derived from non-GMO coconut shells.
