Activated Charcoal Health Benefits

Charcoal is one of those great little things we all need but never knew we needed. Activated charcoal can be used as a natural teeth whitening agent; i have tried it myself and it works like a charm. The funny part is seeing your mouth full of this black powder; it is such a strange site compared to the usual white foam we see when we brush our teeth. Use it two times a day brushing no less than 60 seconds each time. You will see results in about a week. This will make your teeth a shade or two whiter, not to be compared to dental whitening and bleaches that make a difference of 10 shades; but we are here to talk about natures gifts.
You may have known someone who had a bad stomach virus and or food poisoning, and this little guy is here to save the day. Charcoal is known to not only clear your digestive track but swallow up toxins in the stomach with little effort. If you know someone who enjoys drinking but doesn't enjoy hang overs; charcoal will prevent a hangover when taken after your last drink of an alcoholic beverage. You can find circular charcoal tablets in select pharmacies.

Charcoal is also excellent at clearing up blemishes and acne. Charcoal sucks acne causing germs right out of your pores while simultaneously reducing inflammation. Anyone ever use an antiperspirant that darkened the skin under your arm pits? Activated charcoal will lighten the darkened skin by sucking out impurities and cleaning your pores inside out. Magical if you ask me. If you have a little time to spare at home go ahead and make yourself an exfoliating body scrub out of this stuff. It's a natural way to exfoliate dead skin, remove germs, and leave you feeling fresh as we all enjoy.
