Activated charcoal is a fine, odorless, black powder often used in emergency rooms to treat overdoses. Its toxin-absorbing properties have a wide range of medicinal and cosmetic uses, though none are scientifically proven. Many of us have used activated charcoal for a long time, primarily for digestive upsets, and have found it to be useful. It must be taken at least two hours before or after other supplements or foods.
