How to do a Daily Detox with Activated Charcoal + Apple Cider Vinegar how to use activated charcoal more often to adsorb internal toxins.

Our bodies have various methods of naturally detoxing: urination, bowel movements, sweat. But internally, we need a porous supplement that binds with and ushers out GI toxins. Activated charcoal is effective in this role, affordable and incredibly convenient. Activated charcoal is a special form of carbon that can bind other substances on its surface (adsorption). Adsorption works by chemically binding the body’s impurities to the carbon (charcoal). The active sites in the charcoal eventually become filled. Activated charcoal is a special form of carbon processed to have small, low-volume pores that increase the surface area available for adsorption or chemical reactions. Due to its high degree of microporosity, one gram of activated carbon has a surface area in excess of 32,000 sq ft, or larger than a football field! (source, source) (In contrast, when something is absorbed, it gets soaked up and assimilated into the blood stream.) Modern health benefits of activated charcoal.

The same is true of lesser-known toxins, such as the possibility of excess vitamin A.
