Features
Organika® activated charcoal powder is an all-natural product that aids detoxification, and ideally complements your beauty routine. Activated charcoal is versatile, non-animal-tested and sustainably sourced. It can be mixed with water for use as a face mask, or for a quick and effective teeth-whitening brushing treatment. With no culinary contraindications, you can also use activated charcoal in your drinks or baked goods.
Organika® activated charcoal is treated only with oxygen, a process called "activation", to increase the pore size of the carbon and give it a larger surface area for trapping toxins. As an example, 1 gram of activated carbon is equivalent to 32,000 ft2 the surface area of seven field hockey rinks. Activated carbon is made up of millions of tiny pores where, through a process known as "adsorption", surrounding particles, including toxins and pathogenic residues, are trapped.
Activated charcoal has been part of traditional medical remedies since the early 1500s. Activated charcoal (carbon) is a safe and effective way of naturally capturing and eliminating toxins from the body. Health professionals have been taking advantage of charcoal adsorption for centuries to treat a variety of conditions, including poisoning, wound treatment and digestive system detoxification.
