Activated charcoal is everywhere. It`s added to face masks, whitening toothpastes and sold to be consumed in tablet, capsule and powder form. This trendy food supplement claims to cleanse us of toxins, beat bloating and even cure a hangover. Activated charcoal has a long history of use in emergency medicine for the treatment of drug overdose or accidental poisoning. Administering the charcoal promptly and at sufficient doses allows it to bind with certain drugs or poisons, reducing their absorption in the gut and minimising the detrimental effects on the patient. Recently, weâ€™ve seen an increase in â€˜detoxâ€™ health products
