Activated charcoal is known for its ability to bind to certain poisons, heavy metals, and other toxins and flush them from your body, making it a wonder substance for acute and general detoxification. 
Activated charcoal is the by-product of burning coconut shells. The substance is “activated” by high temperatures, removing all the oxygen and changing its chemical structure to create much smaller particles with more surface area resulting is a highly adsorbent material with millions of tiny pores that capture, bind, and remove toxins, poisons, heavy metals, chemicals, and intestinal gases.
Just two grams of activated charcoal (4 capsules) has the same surface area as a football field. The porous surface has a negative electric charge that attracts positively charged unwanted toxins. Activated charcoal adsorbs most organic chemicals, many inorganic chemicals, drugs, pesticides, mercury, and even lead which is then safely passed through and excreted from the body.
Activated charcoal is used for general detoxification, poisoning, digestive health, gas, bloating, heart health, bad breath, body odor, skin ailments, hangovers, general unwellness, and more recently anti-aging, in a recent scientific study a 10 day course at 1 month intervals increased the lifespan of rats by 34%
