Overview
Swanson's Activated Charcoal supplement packs 260mg of activated charcoal powder per capsule, with a 520mg dose delivered across two capsules per serving, in a 120-capsule bottle aimed at digestive comfort.
Activated charcoal is used in supplement form for occasional digestive discomfort, working by binding to substances in the gut rather than through a nutrient or vitamin mechanism. The listing's 520mg per-serving figure implies a two-capsule serving size even though each individual capsule carries 260mg, which is worth checking against the label before dosing.
