Activated Charcoal Everything

Activated Charcoal Everything is a marketing gimmick with real risks: from lattes to toothpaste, it was added to every product despite evidence that it interferes with medication absorption—reducing effectiveness by up to 70%—and offers zero proven detox benefits in food. The trend is slower than the typical wellness fad in fading, yet its dangers are clearer: chronic use can lead to malnutrition and constipation. At $15 for a jar of charcoal powder, it's cheaper than the average IV drip, but the hidden costs in compromised health far outweigh any perceived detox advantage.
