Binchotan Charcoal is activated by burning branches of oak at extremely high temperatures inside a specialized kiln. This process, called nerashi, carbonizes the structure of the wood and leaves behind countless porous cavities that naturally bond with toxins, trapping chemicals and other impurities.

Hundreds of years ago, the Japanese discovered the wellness qualities and benefits of Binchotan Charcoal. This pure charcoal can absorb impurities, freshen and regulate the air as well as balance energy levels. 

Binchotan Charcoal is nearly 100% carbon. 

How does it work?

In the 20th Century, scientists began studying Binchotan's properties and benefits. They found that its micro-porous structure contains 270 square meters of internal surface in each gram. Through a process of adsorption, where particles are attracted and adhere to the surface, the pores cleanse the environment by adsorbing gases from the atmosphere, electromagnetic waves and radio frequencies as well as chlorine and heavy metals from water.Wellness Uses
