Back in 1831, Professor Touery, in the presence of his colleagues from the French Academy of Medicine, drank a fatal dose of strychnine, and, to everyone’s great surprise, survived. The secret was that he had mixed the poison with activated charcoal. Activated charcoal is a very potent means for emergency cleansing of the gastrointestinal tract, maybe the most effective cure known today.

Improve Liver, Adrenal Gland And Kidney Functions With Activated Charcoal

It can be used in poisoning cases from practically all toxic substances. Activated charcoal lowers the absorption of toxic substances up to 60 percent. This substance functions as a sponge, and it is made of different carbon-containing substances of natural origin.

Activated charcoal is a regular charcoal treated with oxygen. The result from the treatment is charcoal that is highly absorbent. This process is going on at a really high temperature and the resulting activated charcoal is a substance which is nearly one hundred percent made of carbon. Its chemical composition resembles the one of graphite. The beneficial features of activated charcoal can be contributed to the great number of pores and hence activated charcoal exhibits pretty high absorbent and catalytic features.

A teaspoon of activated charcoal has a surface area of around 10,000 square feet. It absorbs the toxins and helps the body get rid of them. Not only to toxins, the activated charcoal does the same thing to chemicals, heavy metals, morphine, pharmaceutical drugs and pesticides as well.

Benefits of Activated Charcoal and Its Uses:

  • food poisoning
  • poisoning by different chemical substances, toxic heavy metals, drugs, alkaloids
  • general body detoxification
  • body odor and bad breath
  • hepatitis: chronic and acute viral
  • inflammation
  • different skin ailments
  • treating stomach pain caused by diarrhea, excess gas or indigestion
  • intoxication which is a result of chemotherapy and radiotherapy
  • withdrawal syndrome (as a rule, it is used for drinking, not for drug addiction)
  • helps in lowering the cholesterol, lipids and triglycerides in the blood

It is important for you to know that the activated charcoal does not deplete the body of nutrients. David O. Cooney has published a book, titled ‘Activated Charcoal’, in which he says that when you add charcoal to the diet of sheep and you do this for six months, they do not lose nutrients from their bodies, unlike the sheep that have not been receiving charcoal. Five percent of the complete diet consisted of charcoal. This did not influence the blood and the urinary levels of copper, magnesium, calcium, iron, potassium, zinc, sodium, inorganic phosphorus, uric acid, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, urea nitrogen, the total protein and the urine pH. Activated charcoal is frequently used as an ingredient in the products for body detoxification. It is found in different forms, including powdered, liquid and chewable tablets.
