ACTIVATED CHARCOAL
*The idea is to allow the body to remove heavy metals and toxins without any side effects. Please note that because of EU Regulation on nutrition and health I am very limited on any nutrition or health claims to be made but this does not mean you can't research your own information on the internet, concerning these products.
*Please note that I do not make this Charcoal powder myself but I have selected a provider (which I believe the best) with the intention of complement my own extensive health range of products and herbal remedies.
SOME INFO & TIPS ABOUT ACTIVATED CHARCOAL!
Activated charcoal is a fine black powder which can be made from bone char, coconut shells, peat, petroleum coke, coal, olive pits or sawdust. Please note the one I do sell is from a very trusted provider and it is made from coconut shells.
Please note that not any charcoal should be used internally. For that purpose the charcoal needs to be activated by processing it at very high temperatures. The high temperatures change its internal structure, reducing the size of its pores and increasing its surface area. This results in a charcoal that is more porous than regular charcoal. Activated charcoal should never be confused with charcoal briquettes that are used to light your barbecue. Even if both can be made from the same base materials, charcoal briquettes have not been activated at high temperatures and they may contain some additional substances that are toxic or even fatal to humans.
Please note that activated charcoal is comonly used to help to treat a drug overdose or food poisoning. It is believed that when you take activated charcoal, drugs and toxins can bind to it. This helps the body to get rid of unwanted and harmful substances.
It is also very popular for the cosmetic industry and recommended for make-up, oral and skin care products. It can be used to make natural toothpaste, mouthwash, skin and haircare products to gently remove or cleanse dirt and toxins. It is also great for natural colouring.
*Please note that my charcoal powder is sold in 50 gr size glass jars.
