Activated charcoal: its unsuspected virtues for health and beauty

Mechanism of action:
The microporous structure of activated carbon attracts and binds particles responsible for dental staining, particularly those caused by drinks such as coffee or red wine.

Usage protocol:

  1. Moisten the bristles of your toothbrush.
  2. Sprinkle a small amount of activated charcoal powder.
  3. Perform gentle brushing for 120 seconds.
  4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Limit this practice to two or three weekly applications to protect tooth enamel.

Important precaution: People with sensitive teeth or worn enamel should seek advice from their dentist before use.

Frequently used in hospitals to treat poisoning, activated charcoal can also help purify the digestive tract when used correctly.

Its main actions:

  • It blocks their passage into the bloodstream.
  • It can even retain certain pesticide residues and metallic elements.

Warning: Never undertake a charcoal detox without medical supervision. It may absorb essential vitamins or interfere with certain treatments.
