Activated charcoal capsules: 260 mg per capsule, treated with oxygen

These activated charcoal capsules from Holland & Barrett are made from raw material of 100% vegetable origin and activated through an oxygen treatment. Each capsule holds 260 mg of activated charcoal powder, and the 240-capsule tub lets you follow the label dose consistently. The formula is short: besides the charcoal there is just a bulking agent and an anti-caking agent, enclosed in a gelatine shell. Holland & Barrett sells the supplement under its own brand and states that the capsules are rigorously tested.

Key Features of Activated Charcoal Capsules

260 mg of activated charcoal in every capsule, a fixed amount that makes the dose easy to work out.
1,560 mg in the daily serving of 6 capsules, split across three moments of the day.
100% vegetable origin for the raw material the charcoal is made from.
Oxygen activation, the process that sets activated charcoal apart from ordinary vegetable charcoal.
Just two excipients: microcrystalline cellulose as a bulking agent and magnesium stearate as an anti-caking agent.
240-capsule tub with a seal under the cap, to be stored in a cool, dry place.

Why Choose It

These activated charcoal capsules combine a precisely stated dose per capsule, a four-item ingredient list and a 240-capsule tub. They are sold under the own label of a British health and wellbeing chain, and the label states dose, excipients and gelatine source clearly.

The label dose is 2 capsules after meals, three times a day, for a total of 6 capsules and 1,560 mg of activated charcoal. To avoid interactions, take it at least 2 hours after any medication. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Food supplements must not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or under medical supervision, ask your doctor first; stop use if you notice any adverse reaction and keep the tub out of the reach of children. It suits adults looking for an activated charcoal supplement with a clear dosage; as it contains bovine gelatine, it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.

Are the capsules suitable for vegetarians and vegans?

No. The charcoal is of vegetable origin, but the capsule shell is made from bovine gelatine. If you follow a vegetarian or vegan diet, choose a product with plant-based capsules.

Can I take activated charcoal alongside medication?

The manufacturer's directions say to take it at least 2 hours after any medication. If you are on any treatment, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.

When should I take the capsules?

The label recommends 2 capsules after each of the three main meals. This spreads the 1,560 mg daily amount across the day instead of taking it all at once.
