Has anyone used Activated Charcoal?

Does it help preventing bloating and constipation from endometriosis or IBS?

Hi,

I haven’t tried charcoal but magnesium supplements help with constipation from endo. Just be aware it also lowers blood pressure, but generally it has lots of health benefits.

Hi,You need to be careful taking this if your are taking medication as it can act as a binder and stop it working, as it is identified as toxins so removes it from your system. I would recommend doing some research, I was advised to avoid it for this reason, but I don't know enough about it.

Good luck.
