Our Activated Charcoal

Natures' Gift of Health and Wellbeing

Activated Charcoal Benefits:

1) Detoxification.

2) Proven to reduce gas and bloating in the digestive system.

3) When used for digestive cleansing it promotes overall digestive health.

4) Research has found that Activated Charcoal was effective at lowering total and LDL cholesterol levels.

5) Anti-Aging.

Activated Charcoal can lighten the body’s toxic load, reducing allergic reactions, and oxidative damage as well as strengthening the immune system. Through the ability to rid the body of toxins, Activated Charcoal has the potential to be a natural approach to anti-aging. With a reduced toxic load, the body experiences less of the oxidative damage that drives the aging process. In the same way, it may help to prevent cellular damage to our detox organs (the kidneys and liver) and support adrenal gland health.
