FAQ:
Q: Is activated charcoal safe to consume?
A: Yes, in small doses and when using food-grade activated charcoal. Avoid overuse and consult a healthcare provider if you’re on medication, as charcoal may interfere with absorption.
Q: Can I drink this daily?
A: It’s best to enjoy it 2–3 times a week as part of a balanced diet. Frequent use may affect nutrient absorption.
Q: Does this help with hangovers?
A: Anecdotally, yes. The charcoal may help absorb toxins, while lemon rehydrates and refreshes. However, it’s not a cure-all.
Q: Can I make it kid-friendly?
A: Absolutely! Just use less charcoal (1/4 tsp) and sweeten it more to suit young taste buds.
