Does Activated Charcoal Help IBS Symptoms?

by Kirsten Jackson Consultant Dietitian BSc Hons, RD, PG Cert Leave a Comment

Activated charcoal has many claims behind it, including its ability to ‘detoxify’ your gut and help with excess wind and bloating.

This article will look at the science behind these claims to provide you with unbiased dietitian advice on whether you should be taking the supplement.

What is Activated Charcoal?

Activated charcoal comes from charcoal which has been processed and reheated with oxidising gas or other chemicals to increase how absorbent it is (1).

Different types of activated charcoal are used for different purposes. Depending on that specific products surface area and pore size it may be used in industry or medicine.

You can buy activated charcoal in different forms such as liquid, powder, granules and in tablets or capsules. In some shops, you can even buy products which have used activated charcoal as an ingredient.

What is Activated Charcoal Used For?

A single dose of activated charcoal is routinely use in emergency situations by doctors when a patient has overdosed. Activated charcoal works by absorbing some of the drug or poison in the gut, before it is absorbed into the body (6).

What Does The Research Say?

Excess Wind

Studies looking at using this supplement and its’ affect on wind were done in the 1980’s. BUT, they contradict each other and have many flaws.

In one double-blinded randomised trial, 90 individuals across the US and India were trialled on both a placebo and an activated charcoal capsule (260mg /day) (4).

In comparison to a placebo, activated charcoal significantly reduced breath hydrogen as well as digestive symptoms.

Another study from 1986 which used 260mg capsules of activated charcoal also showed a reduction in peak hydrogen production in comparison to placebo (5).

Although these studies seem promising, there are just as many which show that activated charcoal is of no benefit.

One study from 1999 looked at 5 healthy individuals. They were each given 0.52g of activated charcoal 4 x a day for 1 week. This resulted in no significant change in sulphur gas production in the gut (the smelly gas!) (2).

Another study looked at 10 healthy individuals (3). After an overnight fast, participants were given a portion of baked beans. They then have their ‘flatus’ recorded for 9 hours. 

Participants did these each 4 times, taking 4 x capsules of activated charcoal or a placebo with their meal and then every 30 minutes until 16 capsules had been taken. Again, no significant difference was seen with taking the activated charcoal or not.

Not only is the research contraindicating, there are also many other limitations. Such as, not using validated symptom questionnaires, only using healthy individuals instead of those with digestive problems, using different doses of activated charcoal and using different methods for measurements of gas.

Other Digestive Symptoms

There is no scientific research to support the use of activated charcoal for other digestive symptoms.

Is it Dangerous to Take Activated Charcoal?

As it has not be extensively studied, it is hard to give an answer as to whether it is safe or not. 

We know that it absorbs medications, so if you take regular medications then it may reduce how effective they are (6). So please speak to a pharmacist before starting on activated charcoal.

There is also a risk that activated charcoal will absorb some of the nutrients in your food. But we don’t know how much it absorbs, how long you need to leave it between taking the supplement and eating or what the long-term impact of this would be.

How Does It Work?

It is thought that activated charcoal works by absorbing the excess gas which has accumulated in the colon (1).

So, Should I Take Activated Charcoal?

If you suffer from excess gas, then activated charcoal MAY help. The EFSA recommend taking 1g of activated charcoal at least 30 minutes before a meal and 1g after a meal to reduce excess gas (1).

As a registered dietitian, I would not recommend taking activated charcoal for a couple of reasons. Firstly, we do not know what the long-term impact is and secondly, taking pills all day is not a nice way to have to control your symptoms.

Instead, it is important that someone with excess gas gets checked by their doctor for digestive diseases such as coeliac disease. They then need to work with a registered dietitian to 

Summary

There is only a small body of research to support the claim that activated charcoal may help with excess gas. However, we do not know what impact taking a regular supplement could have on nutrition as it may reduce how many nutrients reach your body. 

Ideally those who have excess gas will work with a doctor and registered dietitian to solve their excess gas without activated charcoal supplements.

CAN YOU ADD ANYTHING ELSE? Comment below 👇

🤷‍♀️IBS is such a frustrating condition it can take a lot to mentally process. Why you? What did you do to deserve to get a condition that no one understands, that impacts your whole life and for which there is no cure?

🙋‍♀️I often hear awful client stories about how when they finally pluck up the courage to reach out for help, they are dismissed. This could be opening up to a friend about trialling the low FODMAP diet or perhaps seeking medical help from a doctor. Again frustration, anger and hurt can build.

🤓Whilst you have SO much to be angry about (yes, even in a world where others have it worse, it is ok to be angry about your own situation), you need a support network. 1 in 5 people have IBS, so my suggestion is this (if you can build that courage back up) try to be open about having IBS because you will be surprised about how many other people around you also have the condition! Talking to other people who have it = immediate understanding.

🤷‍♀️Do you know that more women are diagnosed with IBS than men? We don't know 100% why, but my guessing is this cycle has something to do with it!

🙋‍♀️In the week before your period, your progesterone and testosterone levels drop, causing your gut to become more sensitive. Your behaviour also changes. Research has shown that our portion sizes tend to be larger at this time, AND to top it off, your mood will be lower. All these things will impact your IBS.

😅 You may wish to curl into a ball, but this will only worsen the situation. So here are some easy-to-implement tips;
1. Balance your portions of food.
2. Move daily (even a gentle walk or stretching for 30 mins).
3. Prioritise sleep.
4. Try meditation.

💩 Do you suffer with gut problems during Ramada 💩 Do you suffer with gut problems during Ramadan?

😭 Many of my clients find that Ramadan worsens their constipation which means they feel uncomfortable instead of feeling like they can embrace the holy month.

➡️ The truth is that constipation during this time can easily be avoided by making small changes to your diet and lifestyle. One example of this is to add psyllium husk to your diet which will boost your fibre intake without causing more gas or bloating.

🤷‍♀️Which tests have you had done? Commen 🤷‍♀️Which tests have you had done? Comment below ⬇️​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
🙋‍♀️At the start of the Take Control Programme, I talk through the importance of testing. The reason is that IBS symptoms could also be symptoms of numerous other conditions such as IBD, coeliac disease and even cancer. So best to get tested!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
🤓The tests above are recommended tests from NICE guidelines (the gold standard in the UK). You will also need testing for an inflammatory marker known as CRP. Your doctor may wish to do additional testing if you are showing symptoms or potential increased risk of other conditions, but these are not standard and not always required.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
🤓On the right-hand side, you have tests which are NOT required. The first one is mapping or testing your gut microbiome. Regardless of how accurate this is, it is pointless. This is because we don't yet know what a normal gut microbiome looks like, so what are you going to do with those results? It is a waste of $.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
🤓The next test is for food intolerances - VERY inaccurate! The only way to accurately diagnose a food intolerance is through elimination and reintroduction.​​​​​​​​

🤷‍♀️Anyone else feels like IBS zaps their energy?​​​​​​​​

🙋‍♀️When I ask people what their main IBS symptoms are, yes they say diarrhoea/constipation, bloating BUT also fatigue. It is crazy how your digestion can make you feel like you are in this big cloud and only have enough energy to do the minimum each day. The problem is that you were not put on this planet to just do the minimum in life, and knowing this will make you feel sad and helpless. The good news is that when your digestion is actually functioning well, you will feel like the light has been turned on inside your brain.​​​​​​​​

CAN YOU RELATE? ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
😭 I think this post emphasises the point that NOT EVERY DISABILITY IS VISIBLE. As IBS sufferers we often hide our pain in silence day in day out, hoping nobody notices or asks questions. When people ask how we’re doing, we do the polite thing and reply with “I’m fine”. Leaving the burden of IBS to be dealt with alone…​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
🤔 But what about instead of struggling alone in silence, you embody the Take Control Method whereby you prioritise emotional support. Open up to a friend, a colleague or a loved one - problem shared is a problem halved. ❤️​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

🤓 Bile salts are needed in digestion to break down fats. After the salts have been used they are recycled and when this process is broken you can end up with inadequate amounts of bile acid available. This means that your dietary fat is unable to be broken down and you can end up with loose stools.

➡️ If you have watery stools 3 or more times a day and have IBS please mention this to your doctor 🙏.

Do you have these symptoms? Comment below ⬇️ ​​​​​​​​​
🤔 Endometriosis is when the lining of the uterus is found in other areas of the body. Many IBS symptoms are also symptoms of endometriosis, so it often is misdiagnosed as IBS. Unfortunately, many women wait 7-10 years before a diagnosis.

🙋‍♀️ Interestingly, following the low FODMAP diet for 4 weeks showed a 50% improvement of symptoms in 72% of women who suffer from endometriosis. However, please consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and a dietitian before following a restrictive diet!

🩸ALWAYS mention any unusual period-related symptoms to your doctor!

😢 Having IBS can really take a toll on your mental health. In turn your IBS can cause anxiety and your anxiety can then cause IBS symptoms leading to a viscous cycle.

🤔 But what if you no longer had to deal with any of these fears and could get your symptoms under control! Instead of continuing with these behaviours adopt the take control method of social support and open up about your IBS to someone!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
