Well, it's been a very interesting few weeks for activated charcoal in our home. We've used it to greatly mitigate two cases of food poisoning. Our charcoal soap has completely eliminated all my hand warts, almost without me even noticing! I had been using apple cider vinegar with some success, but that method was very painful and very inconvenient (it's hard to leave band aids on your hands 24 hours a day for a week or more). I've had the warts for YEARS, so I'm very very pleased.
However, my wife started using the charcoal soap on her whole body, and she's broken out in some nasty hives. She's read somewhere that it is a common reaction when using charcoal soap for people with sensitive skin, and that it will go away in about two weeks. She's going to continue it's use. Which is fine, as long as she can tolerate the itching, I see no problem with it. I'm not totally convinced it's the soap, as I think it may be related to the aforementioned food poisoning.
Your thoughts?
