Product details
Description
Activated Charcoal Powder | Occasional Use · Odorless & Tasteless · Fine Powder
Charcoal becomes "activated" when it's heated to create millions of tiny pores. That huge surface area lets it bind other substances to itself, which is why activated charcoal has been a staple of natural remedies, clay face masks, and DIY tooth powders for generations.
Why Activated Charcoal?
- May support comfort from occasional gas and bloating*
- A popular addition to DIY clay masks and skincare
- Odorless and tasteless
How to Use
- Stir the serving on your package label into a full glass of water
- Drink right away, before it settles, then drink another glass of water
- Use occasionally, not daily
Tip: the fine powder travels. Open the bag slowly and mix over the sink, since it can stain grout and fabric.
