CARBONOX Activ Complex DETOX® activated charcoal from organically grown coconut shells

CARBONOX Activ Complex Detox® 500 mg medicinal charcoal from organically grown coconut shells.

Medicinal charcoal obtained from coconut shells is activated with steam at high temperatures to create millions of pores per gram with a high capacity to absorb toxins from the body. These harmful substances are subsequently eliminated through the excretory function.

The additional pores in activated charcoal have 6-10 times greater absorption capacity than regular charcoal. Carbonox Activ Complex Detox® completely captures the gas molecules that cause bloating and flatulence. The beneficial effect is obtained by consuming at least 1 g, 30 minutes before a meal and 1 g immediately after a meal, according to Reg. 432/2012.

Why take Carbonox Activ Complex Detox ® – activated charcoal for bloating and intestinal gas?

Medicinal charcoal is used as a gastric remedy for excessive bloating and excess intestinal gas.

The additional spaces in the activated charcoal in Carbonox Activ Complex Detox® 500 mg capture the gas molecules inside the intestine that cause bloating. Just two capsules of Carbonox Activ Complex Detox® 500 before and after each meal help break down the gas so that it can be eliminated more easily and comfortably, eliminating flatulence and the feeling of being full.

Charcoal and Poisoning

Due to its high absorption capacity, activated charcoal has been used as an emergency remedy for poisoning since the early 1800s, as well as to manage drug overdoses.

A dose of activated charcoal should be taken within the first hour of an overdose or poisoning. Studies show that ingesting 50-100 grams of powdered activated charcoal within 5 minutes of taking a drug can reduce an adult’s ability to absorb that drug by up to 74%.

In medical protocols, the initial dose of 50-100 grams is sometimes followed by several smaller doses of 10-25 grams, taken every 2-4 hours for up to 6 hours.

Does activated charcoal have any contraindications or precautions?

Taking activated charcoal with oral medications can decrease the amount of medication absorbed by the body, and therefore reduce their effects. To prevent this interaction, take activated charcoal at least 1-3 hours after medications.

Detoxification with activated charcoal

Due to its ability to block the passage of toxins into the blood, liver and kidneys, and to absorb toxins from the gastrointestinal tract, a detoxification course with activated charcoal should be taken 3 times a year, for 30 days, along with Probiotic Complex and Colonox Colon Detox®.
