Vegetable carbon
Description
Vegetable coal, also known as activated carbon, is the result of the combustion of different types of wood (pine, birch, oak), then "activated" by injecting steam. The carbon then becomes porous and capable of absorbing almost 100 times its volume in gas. It works by capturing and retaining undesirable substances (bacteria, toxins, gases, etc.) on its surface and facilitating their removal.
Vegetable charcoal is a precious ally for the digestive system. It helps to reduce flatulence and bloating and to fight effectively against stomach aches and diarrhoea.
The benefits
Vegetable charcoal contributes to the normal functioning of the intestinal tract while promoting digestive comfort. It also helps to reduce excess flatulence.
In combination with a balanced diet, vegetable charcoal helps to control lipid metabolism, particularly that of cholesterol and triglycerides. Vegetable charcoal is thus a natural source that helps maintain the physiological balance of fats in the blood.
