Activated charcoal (AC) is one of the most effective detoxifying agents on Earth. It is made from carbon-rich materials; it can be derived from either an inorganic source (e.g., coal, petroleum), or organic sources (e.g., coconut shells, bamboo, wood [oak, maple, and birch] and peat). Coconut shells are typically the best source material due to their low impurity levels.
