Overview
["MaryRuth's packages this activated charcoal at 950 mg per capsule, 40 capsules to a bottle, derived from coconut shells with the capsule itself made from pine tree material rather than gelatin. The maker markets it around substance adsorption, framed as a general wellness claim rather than a medical one, and the vegan, non-GMO, gluten free labeling gives it broad dietary appeal.", 'At just under 16 dollars, it is priced reasonably for a 40 day supply at one capsule daily, though buyers who want a bulk long term option may find the count on the smaller side. The listing does flag that tree nuts may be present, worth noting for anyone with a tree nut allergy.', 'Buyer response here is unusually strong, with a 4.8 rating from 2,200 reviews and a reported 5,000 units bought in the past month, among the highest purchase volumes in this category. As always, it is a good idea to talk with a healthcare professional before adding a new supplement, especially since activated charcoal can affect how the body absorbs other substances.']
