Since I turned 50, I've had occassional trouble digesting some "foods" like white four, dairy, refined sugar, fast food, and even some expensive resturaunt foods as well. I Take a 250mg charcoal pill one time for extreme gas, bloating and acid indigestion when needed and within 1/2 hour, all symptoms disapear. I also have changed my diet to eliminate most of the offending "foods" and this has help...

I will never take another Activated Charcoal capsule again. The pain/negatives incredibly outweighed any positives.

Taking for food poisoning. Did not help with nausea and diarrhea related to the food poisoning. Continued diarrhea. Not a good experience.

I have severe stress and anxiety, which would cause ulcers and gas to build up in my chest, which was painful and made it hurt to breathe. After a few days, Charcoal provides relief for when this occurs - otherwise it can seem to go on indefinitely.

I had a bad Flatulence problem as I brew all my own beer and the yeast would cause Boucoups Bad gas. I searched for a solution beside abstinence and found it with activated charcoal, but it does bind you up a bit and your poops are black

I had one inch cut on my left hand in the middle finger. The accident happened at 10:00 am on 01/08/2016. Blood was coming out fast but I put a temporary bandaid to stop the blood. When I got home in the afternoon my wife immediately applied an activated charcoal capsules. She opened the capsule and pour the charcoal powder into my finger and put a small piece of bandage. The following day the paid is gone and the wound has dried up and the 2nd day the I had to take the bandage out and the wound has 80 percent healed already. Now it's completely healed that's why I was able to type this review.Read More Read Less

Activated Charcoal simply works. Better than any other product I tried. I take it only when you need it.

I am taking activated charcoal for heavy metal (mercury) poisoning caused by amalgam filings. All my neck stiffness, skin mark and dull hair are gone as well as intestinal pain. I highly recommend this product for people suffering from heavy metal poisoning and toxins (neurotoxins and biotoxins).

While at family camp, my two-year-old grandson plucked a toxic wild mushroom and popped it into his mouth! Amazingly, a husband and wife MD, and Natural Doctor, were with us. They instructed us to immediately get activated charcoal into him, THEN, transport him to the emergency room. Activated charcoal was added to applesauce, which he readily accepted. He was transported, never suffering pain, nor ill consequences. He is now quite the healthy, active seven year old. Activated charcoal has also spared our family unnecessary pain and expense when food poisoning was experienced. The relief was almost immediate. I now keep caplets and powder on hand at home and camp. Though I am neither in the medical field, nor an expert of any type, I have given this information to you to let you know how we have been benefited by activated charcoal. Read More Read Less
