We’ve seen the growing popularity of activated charcoal over the recent years from charcoal lemonades to activated toothpaste, but do you really know what it is, how it works, and how it can help you?
Activated charcoal is specifically manufactured by superheating natural sources of carbon such as coal, coconut shells, wood, and peat. This heat-pressing process results in a charcoal that then becomes “activated.”
This activated charcoal consists of almost pure carbon, which has properties that are highly absorbent of moisture and chemicals, making it useful for several medicinal and cosmetic applications!

Treating Your Kidneys Kindly
The primary function of our kidneys is to filter toxins from blood cells and remove waste products from our bodies. When our kidneys don’t function properly, usually those suffering from chronic kidney disease, filtering and removing these toxins becomes difficult for our kidneys alone and put us at risk for serious medical complications.
This is where activated charcoal can help!
The porous texture of activated charcoal binds to harmful toxins and keeps your body from absorbing them, allowing your kidneys to function more easily.
