Some of the uses of activated charcoal

1. Kidney health  Function. Activated charcoal may be able to assist kidney function by filtering out undigested toxins and drugs. It is very effective at removing toxins derived from urea, the main byproduct of protein digestion.

2. Intestinal gas
Liquids and gases trapped in the intestine can easily pass through the millions of tiny holes in activated charcoal, and this process may neutralize them.

3. Water filtration
People have long used activated charcoal as a natural water filter. It absorbs a range of toxins, drugs, viruses, bacteria, fungus, and chemicals found in water.

4. Stomach Upsets
Activated charcoal may treat diarrhea. Given its use as a gastrointestinal absorbent in overdoses and poisonings, it follows that some people might propose activated charcoal as a treatment for diarrhea.

An individual must take or be given activated charcoal within 1 to 4 hours of consuming a toxin for it to work. The charcoal cannot work if the person has already digested the toxin or drug and it is no longer in the stomach.

No one should ever try to treat an overdose or poisoning at home.
