Activated charcoal from Optima Naturals is a gluten-free, vegan dietary supplement, appreciated in cases of bloating and aerophagia. It helps reduce the annoying feeling of bloating and abdominal tension. The product is obtained from coconut. Charcoal, also called activated carbon in food supplements, has been known since ancient times for its properties at the level of the gastrointestinal system and is particularly useful and appreciated in the presence of aerophagia, bloated abdomen, meteorism and flatulence. Its beneficial characteristics are determined by the tiny particles that make up charcoal: thanks to their adsorption capacity, they are able to retain unwanted air and liquids that develop at the gastrointestinal level, reducing the annoying sensation of bloating and abdominal tension. Optima Naturals activated charcoal is obtained from coconut shells, which, thanks to their particular porosity and activation process, improve the properties of charcoal at the gastrointestinal level. It is recommended to take with a little water or other beverage of your choice. Do not exceed the indicated daily dose. Keep out of reach of children under three years of age. Food supplements are not intended to replace a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Store in a cool, dry place, away from light.
