Activated Charcoal Powder Capsules - Food Supplement What Is Activated Charcoal?_x000D_Activated charcoal is very different from the charcoal that is commonly used for barbeques. It is made from a range of natural materials and is used in both conventional and alternative medicine as a means of dealing with toxins. Activated charcoal has the ability to trap unwanted chemicals in the body, preventing their absorption and helping to facilitate their removal._x000D_How Does Activated Charcoal Work?_x000D_Although activated charcoal is widely referred to as an absorbent, the mechanism behind its activity in the body is actually a process known as adsorption. During adsorption, gases adhere to the surface of a solid or a liquid to form a thin layer of molecules. The surface of activated charcoal is covered in tiny pores, which are created through a specialised heattreatment process. This porous surface has a negative charge that attracts the positively charged particles found in the excess gas that sometimes accumulates in the digestive system._x000D_Who Can Benefit from Taking an Activated Charcoal Supplement?_x000D_Activated charcoal capsules are popular with people who are looking to targetissues such as excessiveflatulence. Following ingestion, activated charcoal works to absorb the gas that is sometimes produced after eating a meal._x000D_The results of a study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology provides evidence to support the efficacy of activated charcoal.
