Q and A: How to use Activated Charcoal to remove cat urine odor?

Question: Hello, My cat has urinated on my carpet a few times and I’m finding it impossible to remove the odor, it seems as though it has leaked into the padding. Do you have a product that may work, and if so which one would you recommend? Thanks in advance, Ronda Answer: Hi Ronda. The Pure NonScents. Wash the carpet as best as you can. Then put a light cotton fabric over it and pour on the Pure NonScents. It will probably remove the smell right away, however…..you must leave it on, probably for two to three weeks so that it can reduce the odor in the long run completely. […]

Q and A: Can Activated Charcoal help or exacerbate Hypoglycemic symptoms

Question: Hi John, I would like to know if you know if taking activated charcoal can cause or exacerbate hypoglycemic symptoms? There was a slight reference to it on the net. Thanks a bunch, Cathlin Answer: Hello Cathlin Thank you for contacting us. I am not aware of any cases of people telling us that charcoal helped or aggravated their hypoglycemia. But, since activated charcoal has been reported to help with hyperglycemia (diabetes) I suspect it might have a positive effect. We live in a culture of eating constantly that places a burden on the pancreas to overproduce insulin. In time the pancreas becomes “confused” with signals for insulin for […]

Q and A: Charcoal powder for juice bars

Question: Hi Kimberly! We need AC to blend in with our alkaline water products, so the powder has to be easily resolved in water. What kind of AC powder do you recommend to use in such products? What defines the charcoal to be used in such products? Kindly regards, Pablo Answer: Hi Pablo. Activated charcoal is not soluble, meaning that it does not dissolve in water (even though it looks like it when well mixed) it is only suspended, which means that it will eventually sink to the bottom of the cup or jar.  Our Coconut Activated Charcoal Ultra Fine Powder can be purchased in larger amounts and is the most popular […]

Question: Hi, My husband takes tegratol, which controls his epilepsy. is there any way possible he can use AC with his condition? he can NOT have a seizure or he will lose his driver’s license.

The best person to ask would be your pharmacist who knows the drug, but my personal response […]

Treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) with Activated Charcoal (Real Story)

Testimonial on using Activated Charcoal for IBS (Irritable Bowel syndrome) My elderly mom (81 years) was struggling from IBS (Irritable Bowel syndrome) caused by chronic medication side effects. She had a scope and a scan – Specialists and her GP could not help her acute pain and suffering. After almost 8 months as a last resort, we thought what about trying Activated Charcoal.

Her bowel movements normalised and for the first time she is feeling […]
