Activated charcoal reduces bloating effectivelyEfficacy of activated charcoal in reducing intestinal gas: a double-blind clinical trial.
We evaluated the effectiveness of activated charcoal in alleviating bloating and reducing gas production through a double-blind clinical trial. Participants from diverse dietary contexts in the United States and India underwent breath hydrogen tests to assess gas levels after consuming either activated charcoal or a placebo. Our findings revealed that activated charcoal notably diminished breath hydrogen levels and significantly lessened associated bloating and abdominal discomfort in both groups. This suggests that charcoal can be a useful remedy for gas-related issues.

Charcoal tablets are essential in every home and travel bag. They effectively absorb toxins and help expel them from the body, especially after consuming contaminated food or feeling bloated. I recommend taking 5 to 10 capsules with water when experiencing gas, nausea, or any discomfort. Additionally, avoid using these tablets with regular medications, as they can hinder absorption. Surprisingly, they can also whiten teeth if used correctly.
