Hi xavier01,
There are books and websites that have information on Activated Charcoal. I have 2 of the books that I use for taking Activated Charcoal. Here are some sources for you.
This site has a lot of information. Be sure to check out the links on the left side of the page for different uses for A. Charcoal:

http://www.buyactivatedcharcoal.com/booksI bought my books from Amazon:

http://www.buyactivatedcharcoal.com/product/BK-02I haven't seen this next book yet - it is for those with money and who are serious about Activated Charcoal, but I would like to read it sometime. Maybe the library has a copy. I don't know, but here it is for those who might be into advanced research. It is by the same author (David O. Cooney) as one of the smaller books I posted about above. I wish it didn't cost so much.
http://www.amazon.com/Activated-Charcoal...1816&sr=1-2I have mostly used activated charcoal to stop vomiting during a migraine attack and for stomach flu and other nausea problems. I have seen it used in the emergency room for drug overdose. I have also used it when someone took too much medicine by accident. It adsorbs the medicine and it can save lives.
The books I have have lists of what substances it adsorbs and which substances it does not adsorb.
I keep it with me at all times. I have a whole bottle of it in my FAK. I hope this helps you.
Joy
PS - I just want to say that I am not affliated with the above websites or books in any way.
