I am convinced activated charcoal saved my 6 month old Aussie from parvo. I took her to the vet to get her immunizations and within 12 hours she had full blown parvo. We gave her a turkey baster full of pedialite and teaspoon full of FOOD GRADE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL. Every hour she got the pedialite and every 3 hours we gave her a tablespoon full of FOOD GRADE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL in the pedialite. Within 4 hours of her first dose she was feeling better 24 hours later she was interested in food and water again. A full 48 hours later she was eating cooked rice with chicken broth. She continued to recover by leaps and bounds. I hope this helps someone. We were told to just put her down because she wouldn't recover. I am so glad we didn't. God Bless!
Animals are meant to eat raw foods, raw meats. Cooking food is not natural for them. Cats that were grown on cooked food/meat showed more problems and conditions and shorter lifespan. Cooking Destroys Enzymes needed for nutrient delivery and absorption. This is a problems with humans too.
I've been using activated charcoal for 3 days. I know that's not long but I can smell things again like I haven't been able to for years. Must be working 👍
If you use it only use it on occasion, say once a month for example, it absorbs important minerals and nutrients as well and regular intake means it's going to be really hard for your body to absorb these minerals. It does more harm than good if taken unnecessarily.

My son came out one morning feeling ill in the gut. I gave him one capsule with his daily fresh water and by the afternoon..he felt great. I keep some on hand all the time now.
@@barneyclifton6402 Activated charcoal is great but it doesn’t “adsorb” alcohol. It will adsorb substances with a positive charge. This includes minerals.
I had mold toxicity, and charcoal was a big part of my naturopath's prescribed healing process. I travel for work and always have it with me for unexpected GI issues.
Your video is excellent! I use an activated charcoal mask. but before i go any further, for a good part of 15 years, i have had a monstrous face. I do not know what happened, but i have these creases under my eyes, and because of them, my life has been hell for 15 years or so. I have tried soo many things to get rid of these creases, but nothing worked. I tried the activated charcoal mask that i bought off ebay. It is by a company called Shills. I wanted to see what happened with my acne blemishes and other stuff. I was not even thinking about the horrendous under eye creases i have. I just wanted to try the mask. Anyway, i applied the mask, and waited 15 to 20 minutes for it to dry. I then pulled off the mask, and i was amazed! The under eye creases dissapated! They did not go away completely, but they lessened quite a bit. I need to set up an appt. to see a dermatologist, to ask him what the under eye creases are caused by, and WHY the activated charcoal mask dissapates them. I am thinking like maybe i have a skin condition that maybe is curable, but i am not sure of anything! I just know that i am tired of looking so ugly, so horrible with these under eye creases. I know the activated charcoal mask improves my face, so i am going to try my best to get to the root cause of these creases, and to maybe get rid of them for good!
BALDING: Activated Charcoal (AC) is an extremely important relief for balding 20 something young males. Anyone starting to lose hair at a very young age is most likely because of overgrowth of mold/fungus/yeast in the body. The mold attacks the hair follicle so hair falls off. The excess mold can be easily smelled in combs and hair brushes. Nowadays this problem is even seen to be acute in some young men with a black paste like dye coming off of their scalp which often leads to some brain issues as well. An awesome way to get rid of the mold in the body so hair can start growing again is by taking AC as prescribed above by Dr. Axe. The affected comb/hairbrush should be kept separated from the rest and disinfected weekly by soaking in hot water. Thank you Dr. Axe for this.
My hair falling out everywhere is the key sign black mold is back in my apt. I've sanitized everything I can think of...except my comb & brushes. Time to get out my food grade hydrogen peroxide again.
@@brrjohnson8131 you can apply virgin coconut oil on uour scalp as well. It can cure dermatitis and any other skin problem. Coconut oil can make your hair grow too. I've been using it for years. It works very well.
Idk dude i take turmeric and ginger everyday and my hair still falls out i think some of us are just born to be baldies lol i'll let you know if my hair miraculously starts regrowing after taking this
I had food poisoning about 3 months ago and it was the worst/violent sickness I ever experienced. I can't even describe it. But what I did on the second day was start drinking peroxide water and within an hour, my body calmed down and healing came quickly. I then began to do coffee enemas twice a day spiked with peroxide or oil of oregano alternatively. I also added charcoal to my daily drinking water. I passed many kinds of nasties in the four weeks I did this. I was not sick during this time. I just knew the nasties were still inside and I needed to get cleaned out. I am using charcoal occasionally since then.
@@ladyg1772 There are no real measurements. You just want to know you have some in your drink. It will start affecting you as soon as you swallow. It does the same thing inside as outside. So just play with it. I use 35% food grade and just tilt the bottle and let a blurp come out. But more will not hurt you. I drank it in 4 oz of water.
@@ladyg1772 Um yeah... i don't think drinking hydrogen peroxide is the best idea for your body. Not only can it cause small bubbles to form in your bloodstream but anywhere from 6% - %10 is commonly used for bleaching hair and 90% is used to make foam rubber or rocket fuel... does not sound very safe at all.
I keep activated charcoal in loose powder form in a jar for any possible allergic reactions. It reversed my daughter's throat closing up after having Jack Fruit for the 1st time. I've used it a couple of times before (and yes, therapeutically is annoying because it makes green stools hard as rocks) but we're very careful not to take it with any food or vitamins that we'd actually like to KEEP in our bodies. It will adsorb all of it, all that goodness, and remove it from the body. You might as well be water fasting while taking this.
I put it in my coffee. It really improves the taste. I dont recommend taking AC everyday, just once a month or after eating sea food or working with toxic chemicals. It can reduce the benefits of vitamins and minerals.
For me, it made me so run down I had to lay in bed for days. Not sure what this means except that it must have stripped me from necessary nutrients. Maybe it's okay for some people to take, but for me I think it may have been dangerous, because I think it lowered my immune system and made me susceptible to sickness, which is a bad idea during this pandemic.
@@bottlesbob That sounds like a detox or herx reaction. If someone is very toxic, I believe this reaction is common when using any kind of detox. Look into other, gentler detox methods and you may not have such a bad reaction with that.
when I was a young child and we went to the school holiday the teachers always had activated charcoal with them in the first aid kit for us if anything happen SO YES YOU HAVE RIGHT....I live in Europe
Edited to add - I’ve used it for years, effectively. Thank you for sharing this. Note: It’s important for poisoning to call poison control phone number to make sure activated charcoal isn’t contraindicated. I recently thought my dogs had ingested toxic salt we had for melting ice. (I’ve since learned and bought non toxic ice melt.) the bag was ripped open. After giving them charcoal, I read that in the case of salt poisoning (in dogs), that charcoal would make it worse. Thankfully I don’t think they actually ingested it - just made a mess on the floor - so all is well.

You should take it 2 hours before or after your meal. Or take it when your stomach is empty and wait for 2 hours or so before you eat or drink anything.
But you don’t want to get activated charcoal from pharmacy you get that from natural health, food stores. I don’t even think pharmacies knows what that is.
Activated charcoal is AMAZING. I was detoxing with the sauna and niacin (look up the protocol) and other supplements. I am losing weight and when you drop weight whatever is stored in your fat gets released and floats in your bloodstream. I woke up with an overwhelming thought of suicide. I knew it was not normal. It felt urgent like I had to do it right then. I took some activated charcoal and within an hour, the feeling went away. I just knew it was impurities in my body that had been released that were screwing with my brain at the time. Take the charcoal, even if you do not use the sauna. Remember do not take supplements within 2 hours of taking it, as they will be absorbed by the charcoal.
I can relate to your comment. I had the same thoughts of ending my life not realizing what was going on with me. It turned out to be chronic mold exposure. I started taking activated charcoal and felt like my old self soon thereafter. I agree it’s amazing as well as a game changer. I felt like I was dying a slow death is the only way I can describe
I’m trying it for detox from marijuana, I took some and my withdrawals calmed down for a bit but I’m not sure if it’s just placebo as far as emotionally.
I'm getting over a bout of food poisoning, unfortunately I didn't have activated charcoal on hand when it struck. Day 2 of sickness and I just took my first dose, I'm hoping it works!
I say you should take less than what they say in order to see how your body will react first. No way I'm starting out with a whole table spoon three times in a day. I've used it as toothpaste for three days now and it's very abrasive and dries your throat out and mouth and lips. It soaks up everything.
@@DavidOnTheRoadGuitars I have been using activated charcoal for almost 9 months so far without any of those problems that you have, I only use it combined with white clay, and powdered turmeric to brush my teeth.
I don't know who needs to hear this however all I can tell you is please try this activated charcoal it is a godsend I don't need any power drinks or energy drinks in the least! And I feel great!! Not medical advice just personal experience!
I love charcoal capsules . from last two years I have been using it as my face mask . simply open one to two capsules , add rose water and mud mask powder , mix and apply . have extremely oily skin . benefited me a lot . once or twice in a month I also take it orally , no side effects . trust me it will give you clean skin and body
we used to mine mercury off the rocks when I was little. we used large syringes to suck it out between the rocks (early 70s). I used to play with balls of it and roll it all over the kitchen floor, it was fun to play with, or roll it around in my hands. we had bottles of mercury in our house as dad used to sell it but for 20 years we had bottles of it in the home, and each bottle about 10 ounces weighed a ton.. at least if felt like it to a little kid, it's very heavy. So I had my mercury levels tested by the naturopath... and they're elevated for sure, but not crazy elevated. Weird hey? by the way, I've never had any health issues except hypothyroidism. I only take one med for my thyroid and I'm almost 60, so not sure if mercury is preserving me or ?? haha I am taking activated charcoal though now for just basic cleansing of junk. I'll see how it goes. My point though is people freak out about fillings or a thermometer breaking with a drop of mercury and I used to roll balls of mercury around in my hands and played with it a LOT for years when little. Go figure

He has some problem with sugars, even in this diet maybe thanks to the giradiasis? Can i use activated charcoal for gas elimination purpose?
Dr. Axe, I just want to ask if I want to take activated charcoal for molds cleanse and detoxification, how short is the short period of time that we can take activated charcoal before we stop? How many times in a day? Can we use this if we smell fishy odor coming from our sweat and saliva too and for how long should we take activated charcoal before we stop?

+Dr. Josh Axe This may interest you. I learned from a seasoned herbalist that making a paste from AC and placing it in your mouth swish around and leave in for about 30 minutes can stop periodontal disease. It will help eliminate all three forms of spirochetes (bacteria) that cause periodontal disease. I went to a holistic DOD and he showed me on his magnified video monitor the severity of bacteria swimming around. He told me the only way to eliminate and maintain a healthy set of gums was to use a water pic after every meal. I told my herbalist and he showed me this AC technique and after using it once a week for about 3 months I went back to see him. He asked me if I took his advice about the water pic and I told him not yet, he got the camera back in my mouth to check on the status and we could not locate any spirochete bacteria. He was baffled. I told him what I had done but he could not wrap his brain around what I had done. I went back to tell my herbalist and he told me he had the same reaction with him.

I am currently dropping moist all my household & cosmetic body prices for the natural ones & absolutely feel the difference n see it in my face , I get really bloated too retraining everything, so I’ve also started drinking tons of water
Do you take it with food, on empty stomach... does it matter if you take it before or after meals etc... ? I would go ahead and take it as it is convenient, but it would be nice to know if it makes a difference and what the differences are.
+Dr. Josh Axe When you speak of teeth whitening, there are arguments all over the web and youtube about using it. The instructions I have with my small pot of charcoal say to brush teeth for 2 minutes every day, twice a day. There are no warnings on there. People online are saying that activated charcoal will destroy enamel of your teeth. Others are saying it's a myth... What is the real truth? because too many people are just guessing as usual. Thankyou.
Hi Dr Axe, I really enjoy your informative articles and videos. Please look up this nugget to update your Argan Oil article if it is true: that a study posted in the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health examined men between 23 and 40 years old who added argan oil to their diets for 3 consecutive weeks and showed a 20% increase in their testosterone levels. Sorry to post in wrong topic. I cane across it in another article, but there is no year referenced in that article.

How are you now?
@@jolarplaysdead
I've never seen drinking activated charcoal. thanks for the tips.
Would it be good for candida overgrowth?
We Indians are using it from last so many generations.
How often do you consume it and how much do you consume?
In which ways you use it?
I say you should take less than what they say in order to see how your body will react first. No way I'm starting out with a whole table spoon three times in a day. I've used it as toothpaste for three days now and it's very abrasive and dries your throat out and mouth and lips. It soaks up everything.
@@DavidOnTheRoadGuitars I have been using activated charcoal for almost 9 months so far without any of those problems that you have, I only use it combined with white clay, and powdered turmeric to brush my teeth.
@UA-cam Sucks what would you suggest?
Thank you for this video! I have been following you and reading your articles for a long while! I appreciate the knowledge as a biologist :)
thankyou for putting this out there great channel!
I don't know who needs to hear this however all I can tell you is please try this activated charcoal it is a godsend I don't need any power drinks or energy drinks in the least! And I feel great!! Not medical advice just personal experience!
Love this dude found him through Jillian Michaels podcast 👌🏾👌🏾
We always have a bottle of activated charcoal in our pantry. Works wonders.
Hi what all do you use it for?
Handsome, genuine, loving human dr🙏
🦧
I love charcoal capsules . from last two years I have been using it as my face mask . simply open one to two capsules , add rose water and mud mask powder , mix and apply . have extremely oily skin . benefited me a lot . once or twice in a month I also take it orally , no side effects . trust me it will give you clean skin and body
It's just a shame it could not help with that ugly face of yours 😔
I'm afraid only a miracle could help you child.
Hello Doc

Thanks sir to explain deeply... good job
hi Dr Axe. can I use activated charcoal when I have hypothyroidsm?
we used to mine mercury off the rocks when I was little. we used large syringes to suck it out between the rocks (early 70s). I used to play with balls of it and roll it all over the kitchen floor, it was fun to play with, or roll it around in my hands. we had bottles of mercury in our house as dad used to sell it but for 20 years we had bottles of it in the home, and each bottle about 10 ounces weighed a ton.. at least if felt like it to a little kid, it's very heavy. So I had my mercury levels tested by the naturopath... and they're elevated for sure, but not crazy elevated. Weird hey? by the way, I've never had any health issues except hypothyroidism. I only take one med for my thyroid and I'm almost 60, so not sure if mercury is preserving me or ?? haha I am taking activated charcoal though now for just basic cleansing of junk. I'll see how it goes. My point though is people freak out about fillings or a thermometer breaking with a drop of mercury and I used to roll balls of mercury around in my hands and played with it a LOT for years when little. Go figure
Mercury comes from rocks? In between rocks? That's interesting, you use to collect it with syringes? In the USA?
Braggs Charcoal Biscuits are made according to an original recipe from 1879 and devised by John Longman Bragg in his bakery in London's West End. Yuumy!

For bloating and digestion problems, which is better- activated charcoal or bentonite clay?

@@alexha2884thank you- I apologize for missing this.
Thank you for all that you do!! Could you also make a video on food poisoning please!
Yes i take it once a day.i used it as blood cleansing.
It really works.specially for cancer
I am using it for my gut. Crazy thing is. I had molded weed and it got me very sick. Only affected me not my friends tho
When he said negatively charged ions I immediately started getting suspicious, and wished there was still an unlike count ration I could glance at to see if I’m wasting my time by watching the rest of this
Could it be effective for a cancer patient?
Great video! I had ecoli or salmonella a couple months back and can’t seem to get my stomach right. I was also working around mold and am wondering if it has something to do with it as well. So I’m gonna try this! Super excited about it after reading the comments.
I never go on vacation without activated charcoal, it really helped us a couple of times.
I would like to hear experiences of people who take it daily and what is better, 💊 or powder?
Thank you for sharing this great information listening from Brownwood Texas

thank you Dr. Axe, 2 questions. 1. if someone is using this for a mold cleanse you mention can use up to a month. How much activated charcoal would I need to take daily, if i were to do this for a month?
2. what is someone lives in somewhat moldy environment? what frequency of AC would you recommend? thank you

Dr. Ace you are amazing. Thank you for the helpful UA-cam clips. I am a victims of non consensual medical research with nanotechnology. Please cover ways to block or reverse nanotechnology infestation in the body.
How are you doing? When I read your comment I thought it must be from the past year or two. Hope you had success on your detox journey.
Thank you dr Axe
WONDERFUL! Thanks,Doc!
Love activated charcoal and keep it on hand always!
Dr Axe always have such wise information to share ❤️🙏🏼 I’m thankful for his UA-cam channel
Great to clean out parasites 🦠
I usually very tired after using activated charcoal
I have a 3,5 yeras old son with giardiasis, hasn't got diarheea, but many stools a day. He lives on a low fodmap diet, gluten and dairy free. I tried activated charcoal, just a few amount and eliminated gas. We always fight with gas, even with Hcl acid, an ezyme and probio supplement, bu digestion is still problematic, gas causes gerd. He has some problem with sugars, even in this diet maybe thanks to the giradiasis? Can i use activated charcoal for gas elimination purpose?
How did activate charcoal worked on him??
awesome info once again
Can AC be used for gastroenteritis? I have heard that it is a very effective treatment.
Yes
Thanks a million!!!
Thank you, dr Alex
Hello from South Africa xxx
I take lithium. Will it effect me? Also I want to quit taking lithium so will it help get it out of my system? Or will it make lithium weaker?
wanted to see the activated charcoal and what it look like
Thank you :) great info
Does activated charcoal have to be taken on an empty stomach like bentonite clay?
Dr. Axe, I just want to ask if I want to take activated charcoal for molds cleanse and detoxification, how short is the short period of time that we can take activated charcoal before we stop? How many times in a day? Can we use this if we smell fishy odor coming from our sweat and saliva too and for how long should we take activated charcoal before we stop?
Fishy smell is kidney problems. See your Dr asap
Yes u can take it for 5 days stop for a week n start again, that's what my Nutritionalis told me n I've been doing it for years now
Thank you for your information 🎄💕

Chromium 27-29%
Molybdenum 6-8%
Silicon 1-1.5%

Very useful info. Good presentation. Thanks
+Parthasarathy TOTADRI NATHAN Great! Thanks for your support!
+Dr. Josh Axe This may interest you. I learned from a seasoned herbalist that making a paste from AC and placing it in your mouth swish around and leave in for about 30 minutes can stop periodontal disease. It will help eliminate all three forms of spirochetes (bacteria) that cause periodontal disease. I went to a holistic DOD and he showed me on his magnified video monitor the severity of bacteria swimming around. He told me the only way to eliminate and maintain a healthy set of gums was to use a water pic after every meal. I told my herbalist and he showed me this AC technique and after using it once a week for about 3 months I went back to see him. He asked me if I took his advice about the water pic and I told him not yet, he got the camera back in my mouth to check on the status and we could not locate any spirochete bacteria. He was baffled. I told him what I had done but he could not wrap his brain around what I had done. I went back to tell my herbalist and he told me he had the same reaction with him.

You said about detox, how many times a day do I have to drink it, and for how long? I'm 17 years old, and I wanna use Active charcoal for detoxing.
Samee
I want to do a mold cleanse (candida) , so can I consume half tablespoon of activated charcoal daily for one month?
Any suggestions?
Around 4:30 he talks about using it not longer than a month. I hope you for rid of the Candida by now!
Bought a bottle of natures way but it wasnt enough charcoal for the amount of fajita meat i bought smh
Hi Dr. Axe Question I have mercury fillings and want to use activated charcoal how much should I use and over how long. Cheers
it eliminates my histamine intolerance symptoms
but i think it might adsorb electrolytes so unfortunately I cant take it regularly
I just wanna know if itll help with constant bloating since i have endometriosis
abigail Hernandez yes & also use coconut oil, baking Soda & vinegar/apple cider vinegar for anti inflammatory! I am currently dropping moist all my household & cosmetic body prices for the natural ones & absolutely feel the difference n see it in my face , I get really bloated too retraining everything, so I’ve also started drinking tons of water
Do you take it with food, on empty stomach... does it matter if you take it before or after meals etc... ? I would go ahead and take it as it is convenient, but it would be nice to know if it makes a difference and what the differences are.
Will it work for Candidas?
Food grade diatomaceous earth will..Drink lots of water
Thank you so much...Namaste.
+Nadua Garbe You're very welcome.
+Dr. Josh Axe could you do a vid on balanitis?
+Dr. Josh Axe When you speak of teeth whitening, there are arguments all over the web and youtube about using it. The instructions I have with my small pot of charcoal say to brush teeth for 2 minutes every day, twice a day. There are no warnings on there. People online are saying that activated charcoal will destroy enamel of your teeth. Others are saying it's a myth... What is the real truth? because too many people are just guessing as usual. Thankyou.

Can it also adsorb free radicals? Can it work as an antioxidant?
Hi Dr Axe, I really enjoy your informative articles and videos. Please look up this nugget to update your Argan Oil article if it is true: that a study posted in the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health examined men between 23 and 40 years old who added argan oil to their diets for 3 consecutive weeks and showed a 20% increase in their testosterone levels. Sorry to post in wrong topic. I cane across it in another article, but there is no year referenced in that article.
