3 Benefits of using Activated Charcoal
Whitens Teeth- Brushing your teeth with activated charcoal promotes good oral health, preventing cavities, bad breath, and gum disease. It whitens teeth by absorbing plaque and microscopic tidbits that stain teeth. Activated charcoal is not abrasive, so it will not negatively affect your teeth' enamel.
How to use:
For whitening teeth, dip your toothbrush in activated
charcoal, sip water and brush as usual.
Then rinse mouth out until spit is clear again.
2. Alleviates Gas and Bloating- According to the American Journal of Gastroenterology, activated charcoal prevents intestinal gas by binding to gas-causing byproducts in food that cause discomfort and gas. Activated charcoal is also suitable for diarrhea, primarily when the diarrhea's caused by toxic overload.
How to use: take 500 milligrams one hour before eating a gas-producing meal, with a full glass of water followed by an additional glass of water to assist with getting the activated charcoal into your system.
3.Anti Aging- Aging is a part of life, but because of the overload of toxins wear exposed to through the food and water we take in and our environment altogether, getting rid of/detoxing these toxins is a must to prevent premature aging and build-up of disease-causing toxins. Taking activated charcoal internally will clean all organs from your brain to your intestines. Using it outwardly as a mask on the skin will clean your skin from chemicals, dirt, and toxins that cause rashes, acne, and blisters.
