Why would people think that coconut ash would be a form of activated charcoal? It’s a charcoal, but not activated, so all these properties are lost.
2. Activated charcoal is getting rid of bad things in body – that’s true. But to be more precise – it’s getting rid of both good and bad things and not in whole body, but from undigested contents of stomach. If one would eat live saving pills with charcoal, it would end with tragedy. AFAIR hospitals are using it for max 1 hour after poisoning. I wonder why people interpolated it to cleaning of body. There’s no magic in charcoal at all, it’s all about its enormous surface and hygroscopic properties.
3. Ash is unwanted in activated charcoal, because ash greatly weakens coal properties

I’m not trying to offend you! I know you are saying what people says and that was precious for me, as I wanted to know what the heck is that 🙂 Also I admire the producer, as he don’t try to sell some paramedic foobar, but he says it’s for enjoyment and _could be_ for health.
