The charcoal used in JL Bragg’s Medicinal Tablets is made from coconut shells. It is thus sustainable in food and ecosystem terms, as no trees are damaged in the process and the husks are not a food-source.

The charcoal used in JL Bragg’s Medicinal Charcoal Tablets undergoes a process called activation. This is achieved by firstly burning the shells in the absence of air and then placing the carbonised shells in a kiln full of super heated steam at a temperature above 800ºC for between 12-24 hours. The steam opens up the pores of the charcoal and thereby enlarges them. It is this process of activation that creates an enormous internal surface area which makes the charcoal such an effective adsorbent; just a teaspoonful of carbon powder has a surface area the size of a football pitch!

The activated charcoal powder then undergoes laboratory tests to pass the British Pharmaceutical Codex standard 1934. The tests regulate the purity of the charcoal and its use in the Pharmaceutical industry as a medicine.

Charcoal was used for medical purposes as early as 1550 BC by the Ancient Egyptians. However, it wasn’t until the latter part of the 18th century that the adsorbent properties of medicinal charcoal were scientifically studied and it became possible to prepare it in a pure state, primarily as an antidote to poisoning.

Activated charcoal also has many uses, it is used in wound dressings,  water purification systems , in air conditioning systems to remove odours, gas masks and numerous other applications.

Carbon is the most abundant element on earth. The most common forms of carbon are coal, coconut shell, wood, peat and lignite.

I had constant gas that I could not rid with drug store medicine. I tried every brand of drug or medicine to get rid of my gas. Only with Braggs Charcoal tablets I could stop my stomach gas. It's very effective!
