5. Anti-Aging

According to studies, activated charcoal helps in preventing cellular changes linked with adrenal gland function, aging and kidney function. Gerotologists have found out that the powerful anti-aging properties of activated charcoal increased the average lifespan of old test animals by roughly 34%. Activated charcoal aids aging by slowing the rate where the brain develops and increase sensitivity to toxins during aging, which is good for better cognitive functioning. Activated charcoal also builds a much better defense mechanism by developing the adaptive functioning of vital organs such as the adrenals, kidneys and liver.
