Activated charcoal is a fine black powder made by heating carbon-rich materials like coconut shells, wood, or peat at high temperatures. This process creates a highly porous structure, allowing it to trap toxins and chemicals.
It’s widely used in health, beauty, and purification products due to its strong adsorption properties.
