Excellent!

Charcoal is a regular part of our family's health regimen. We take it at the first sign of gut trouble (bad food, unfriendly bacteria overgrowth, painful gas) and it works incredibly fast. With small children, I break open a capsule and give them half of the powder whisked in coconut milk sweetened with stevia (we call it the "cookies and cream shake," marketing is everything). One piece of advice: activated charcoal is extremely adsorbent, so as a daily supplement it's better to take it on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. That way it won't be adsorbing the nutrients from your food and other supplements! However, when dealing with illness or food poisoning, just take what you need when you need it.

If you only buy one supplement this is the one you need. You can break open the capsule and mix the charcoal with water or coconut oil to put on spider bites to pull out any toxins or poison. And take internally especially when loosing weight as the fat cells release toxins that they've been holding onto. Just make sure to follow the instructions and don't get carried away taking it for to long as it binds to the good stuff too.

I love activated charcoal and have been using this supplement for years. I get upset stomachs very often, particularly when I eat take out. I just pop a couple of these bad boys before food and my stomach is noticeably less upset at the end of the meal. These are also perfect when you have food poisoning; take 3-5 pills on an empty stomach with plenty of water every 4-6hrs for 24hrs with no other food and you will feel much better. Excellent benefit!

always a good product to have on hand... perhaps its all in my head but I use it for my dog when he drinks lake water... I use it on myself when I feel like I ate something that was maybe a bit off...I also use it before going to bed if I have a few too many drinks. just a quality product that is effective, imo, pills aren't to large to swallow.

Charcoal is a regular part of my health regimen. I take it the first sign of gut trouble bad food, food poisoning, or unfriendly bacteria overgrowth and it works quickly. It is also an excellent support on occasion to take during a sauna session to bond to any toxins we are all exposed to daily.

I have been taking two capsules per day for 7 weeks, as recommended by Dr Nathan in his book Toxic, to bind mycotoxins. It has definitely reduced my symptoms of sensitivity to fragrance and chemicals but not food unfortunately. However despite taking it at least two hours away from other meds and foods, I am finding that it has depleted my body of magnesium and one of my medical conditions has flared, causing me to wonder if it has bound to the med I use to control it. So I'm going to experiment with taking it weekly or even as the manufacturer recommends, 3 days on and then a few weeks off. But yes it definitely does work which is amazing.

Love this brand for quality ingredients and packaging. There’s no taste and they are a comfortable size to swallow. I find they are very helpful for an upset stomach, gassiness, and constipation. You can also empty the capsules and mix with food.

The quality and ingredients are superb, nice large size as I take charcoal every day for detox and have been for years. What I like about the product is, it has coconut oil in it for better absorption. I find source naturals is of great quality.
