Viva DoriaVirgin Activated Charcoal Powder, Coconut Shell Derived, Food Grade, 1.5 Oz Glass Jar

I purchased this because it supposedly removes toxins when consumed, but I’ve tried it a few other ways. I’ve found certain uses work better for me (#2 &3), so overall am happy with the versatility and “results”.1. Drinking on an empty stomach. I mixed it with water and drank it first thing in the morning (didn’t eat for 1-2 hours after). Did this about 1-2x a week for about a month, but didn’t notice much difference.2. Applying topically to remove oils. Mixing with a dash of water and using as a body scrub or mask helped remove oil/sweat. Downside is getting it fully removed requires attention to detail, but toner or rubbing alcohol help.3. Consuming after food intolerances. I read charcoal was commonly used in hospitals to help with poisonings. There were two instances where I ate something that upset my stomach (likely allergic reaction), and 30 mins after drinking a dash of this with water, I felt significantly better. (I’m not a doctor)4. Teeth whitening. Used once and helped remove stains, but supposedly it can strip the enamel since it’s abrasive.It has a weird texture if you consume it, but you only need a small amount. Be sure to rinse the glass right after since it stains (and didn’t come out in the dishwasher).

Works well in soap making

Highly recommend if you use it properly. Quick delivery too. Tried it immediately upon arrival. The seal was broken, however. You only need to use a very little. Work it around your teeth. It is not to be used like regular toothpaste where you are brushing away, otherwise you will damage your enamel. Swish it around your mouth because it's the activated charcoal itself that does the job of cleaning and whitening. It whitened very well, in fact, and on the very first use. I used even less the next morning, and it whitened just as well when I used it after morning coffee. Folks are insane to use fluoride products. Just use activated charcoal (not any of the fluoride free products either since they have other undesirable additives.) and get food grade aloe and swish with it.

Ok. It can in a glass jar. It’s smaller than I thought

muy bueno

This product is 100 percent tasteless. I drank it in water. It has a tiny grit but super fine. It is not difficult to drink at all. (Granted don’t over do it with the ratio of liquid and charcoal.) I brushed my teeth with it about 3-4 times. My mouth felt really clean and it did seem to whiten my teeth a little after just a few uses. The grit is so fine (much more than baking soda—so I recommend over that) I did not feel I was damaging my enamel. I do advise caution not to use daily for too long since I have concerns this could draw out calcium from your teeth as it has a magnetic (adsorption) quality. I am not qualified to say either way, but I would play it safe. Same holds for its use internally. Do your research on activated charcoal.

Tal vez por ser primera vez al usarlo me dejó manchada la piel seguiré probándolo

I recently inherited a box of old photos, and I couldn't believe how musty they smelled. I wanted to put them all out on display around my house, but I was worried the horrible stench would somehow still be noticeable, even through a frame. I ordered a jar of activated charcoal powder and placed it in a container with the photos and left it closed. Two days later I was happily surprised when I opened the container my photos were saved. There was no trace of the musty smell to be found on any of them. I am so glad I will be able to keep all of the photos in the family for years to come.
