Activated charcoal is one of the most practical tools for sudden digestive discomfort. I value Charco Tabs for their C-Extra® USP charcoal and fast-disintegrating tablet design, which make them easy to keep on hand when you need them.

The Science Behind Activated Charco Tabs +

Activated charcoal has an exceptionally porous surface that can adsorb gases and other compounds within the digestive tract. The charcoal remains local to the gut rather than being absorbed systemically.
With a tablet, disintegration also matters because the charcoal surface needs to become available in the digestive tract. Charco Tabs combine C-Extra® USP activated charcoal with a low-compression tablet design intended to break down quickly.

Safety & Who It's For +

If you use prescribed medication or have a serious medical condition, use the product under the guidance of your healthcare provider. Activated charcoal can interfere with the absorption of medicines, vitamins and other supplements. Take Charco Tabs at least 2 hours before or after other medication or supplements.
