Vegetable Charcoal is obtained when carbonaceous material, such as cellulose, is partially burned in the absence of air. The resulting product (Charcoal) is comprised of almost 100% carbon. Charcoal is a potent absorbent of detrimental bacteria and noxious gases and may alleviate conditions such as diarrhoea, flatulence (bloating) and bad breath (halitosis) by removing toxins from the system. Charcoal has been found to reduce total cholesterol levels.
