Important — Timing With Medications
Activated charcoal is a highly-porous material that physically adsorbs substances in the digestive tract — including medications, supplements, and food nutrients — if they are present at the same time.
Take at least 2 hours before or after any medications, other supplements, or meals to avoid interference with their absorption.
If you take prescription medication regularly, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use.

Good to Know
What is activated charcoal?
Activated charcoal is carbon that has been processed to create a highly-porous structure. It is used as a food additive (INS 153) in a range of products including baked goods, ice creams, and beverages, both for its colour and its physical characteristics.
Why coconut shells?
Coconut shells are a sustainable source material for activated charcoal production. Different source materials produce activated charcoals with slightly different physical characteristics.
Any side effects to be aware of?
Activated charcoal may cause temporary darkening of stools (this is harmless). At high doses, it may cause constipation in some individuals. If this occurs, reduce the amount taken or discontinue use.
