## Description

desertcart.com : Zen Principle Hardwood Activated Charcoal Powder 100 Percent from USA Trees. All Natural. Whitens Teeth, Rejuvenates Skin and Hair, Supports Better Digestion, 40 Oz : Health & Household

Review: Best charcoal product. Love it - *to any 1st timers: set up your work space and CAREFULLY open your package, taking care to slowly spoon out the needed amount into your funnel/bottle/jar/cup* This stuff really works, I am astonished! This brand is excellent quality & has neatly packaged this fine powdery charcoal. There is foil double seal packaging that protects the product and keeps moisture out. I greatly appreciated the pdf book of uses that came with the purchase as well, it has been so helpful as a reference. As noted by the seller, just message them and they email the book to you immediately after purchase. Yes, i saw some reviewers complaints about the mess but, as with any fine powdery substance you must take care opening the package and using this dark powder as it will darken any surface- don't use on/near carpet! However, this fine powder is well worth the effort taking care to slowly get it out of the package for ENDLESS uses!! 1) your hair (I just added a bit into my shampoo bottle and Voila! Your hair is so soft & you'll have healthier follicles after your regular washing and conditioning. 2) Whitening teeth 3) Gardening - spreading light bit over top of soil mound on potted plants 4) Houseplants - mixing small amount into water bottle and spritzing base of plants 5) Face scrub - mix with baking soda, let dry .and rinse 6) Face mask 7) antacid - mix 1tsp with 8oz water and drink, follow with straight water (8 oz). I haven't baked with it yet but hope to try soon. This has started me on an incredible journey of discovery learning all benefits and uses of charcoal and other natural resources. I will continue to use this product, this brand, as a part of my daily regimen. Re: the previous reviewers complaints of the mess, I put a 'PSA' at the top of my review, lol, so maybe more people will open carefully use and still enjoy this awesome product

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between Coconut and Hardwood Charcoal?**
A: Coconut charcoal powder is finer than hardwood, making it ideal for internal applications. However, it it can be hard to clean off. For that reason we recommend hardwood for external uses, though certainly, the coconut will work well for that too.

**Q: Where is this product sourced from?**
A: Our hardwood activated charcoal powder is made from a mix of different hardwood trees that grow in the eastern United States. It’s packaged in a USA facility, GMP-certified (Good Manufacturing Practices) to ensure safety and consistent quality.
