¡á Charcoal and its Effectiveness    
   
  ¡Ü INJURY
 
  There was a lady who had an injury underneath her eyes after falling. Her whole head was painful and her cheeks were swollen. After applying a hot charcoal poultice, her pain and swelling subsided.

A boy fell on a rock and injured his knee severely. He was taken to the doctor but there was no improvement of his injury. He was given hot and cold treatment twice a day followed with a charcoal poultice. A few weeks later, his swelling was gone and his health returned again.
 
  ¡Ü FEVER
 
  Don't use ice on the head when fever is present. Use cold water instead. Use hot poultice over the abdomen area. Place a charcoal poultice and heat on the abdomen and drink charcoal mixed with water. It's more effective to use hot water than cold ice.
 
  ¡Ü INFECTION OF THE EYES AND EARS
 
  When the eye gets red due to infection, apply poultice. If the eye feels better with a hot poultice, apply hot charcoal poultice. Otherwise, use a cold charcoal poultice. For ear infection, apply charcoal poultice externally over the infected ear.
 
  ¡Ü INDIGESTION, DIARRHEA, GAS, STOMACH ULCER, ULCERATIVE COLITIS, BED-RIDDEN PATIENTS
 
  Mix 1-2 teaspoonful of charcoal powder with a cup of water and drink using straw or take 2 capsules or 4 tablets 3-4 times a day. Take charcoal powder and olive oil mixture for indigestion to cleanse the stomach and bring healing. Take 1-2 teaspoons of charcoal and mix with 1,000cc of water and let the charcoal settle. Use the water for charcoal sensitive children, ulcer patients and people suffering constipation instead of water for the most effective results.
 
  ¡Ü HALITOSIS (BAD BREATH)
 
  Brush teeth with charcoal powder or hold charcoal tablet in the mouth. Avoid overeating and snacking. Use charcoal tablet in the mouth or rub charcoal powder on the infected area for infection or sore.
 
  ¡Ü SNAKE OR SPIDER BITE
 
  Mix charcoal powder with olive oil or flaxseed powder and water. Put over the bite to relieve pain and adsorb poison. Use a charcoal poultice as soon as possible. In case of snake bite, change the poultice every 10-15 minutes and take 10 tablets or 2-3 tablespoons of charcoal. If the pain continues, place ice bag over the bite and continuously injestcharcoal.
 
  ¡Ü INFLAMMATION AND INFECTION
 
  Activated charcoal adsorbs bacteria, virus, bacterial poison, hormone, tissue fluid, and pus to prevent swelling and infection from external wounds, bacteria, poison, and allergies. Renowned leader of preventive medicine Ellen G. White wrote, "When the patient was agonizing due to pain and indicated that he was dying, I recommended charcoal poultice. I have suggested use of charcoal and the patient was able to fall into deep sleep and was healed. I prescribed this treatment to the students who had an infection due to injury on the hand. Infection was removed; pain was relieved and was quickly healed. I think you might laugh at this but if I could give this treatment a strange name and use it then it would be effective to a well-known doctor."
 
  ¡Ü INFANT JAUNDICE
 
  An infant had a high bilirubin level and was given charcoal water (1/2 teaspoon mixed with a cup of water) every 2-3 hours. Feed charcoal water to infant until baby can't drink anymore. Remove all clothing and sunbathe baby 1 hour per day.
 
¡Ü SORE MOUTH, THROAT AND TONSILLITIS
 
  Rub charcoal powder inside the mouth. Use charcoal powder to brush teeth. Mouth will be blackened but the healing will be faster because charcoal will cleanse the mouth.

In some cases, sleep with the charcoal tablet. Soar throat is healed also with the same method. Use the same method for tonsillitis and apply charcoal poultice for faster recovery.
 
  ¡Ü SPRAIN
 
  Few months ago, my mom called, asking what she should do for ankle sprain. I told her to place the ankle in the hot water for 3 minutes and the cold water for 30 seconds and keep going from hot water to cold water for 15-20 minutes. Then make a charcoal poultice to place over her sprained ankle. After that regimen, she became a missionary because she has experienced the effectiveness of charcoal.
