An adsorbent by nature
Activated charcoal has a highly porous surface, so certain substances can bind (adsorb) to it rather than being absorbed by it.

How Activated Charcoal Works
Activated charcoal is valued for one simple physical property: it adsorbs. Here is what that means in plain terms — no exaggerated promises.
Activated charcoal has a highly porous surface, so certain substances can bind (adsorb) to it rather than being absorbed by it.
Traditionally kept at home for occasional gas and bloating support. Use as directed on the label.
Keep a pack in your kitchen or first-aid drawer alongside your other everyday essentials.
DOK supplies food-grade activated charcoal powder, packaged for convenient home use.
The science, simply
Activated charcoal is a highly porous carbon material with a very large surface area. Substances can attach to that surface — a process called adsorption.
Activated charcoal is carbon processed to create countless tiny pores. That structure packs a very large surface area into a small amount of powder.
Adsorption (with a d) means certain substances stick onto that surface. This is different from absorption, where a material soaks something into itself.
Activated charcoal is not taken up by the body. It passes through the digestive tract, carrying whatever has adsorbed onto its surface with it.
Adsorption, not absorption. Adsorption is substances sticking to a surface; absorption is a material soaking something in. What adsorbs, how much, and how quickly varies — activated charcoal does not bind everything, and this page makes no claim about effectiveness for any condition.

Optional digestive-care pairing
