Charcoal for Natural Treatment of BPH and Prostatitis
Charcoal that is used for medicinal purposes is called activated charcoal, and it is produced from the common variety, which is made from coal, wood, peat, coconut shells, or petroleum.
To make activated charcoal, manufacturers heat up common charcoal in the presence of a gas that causes the charcoal to develop lots of pores, which attract chemicals and toxins. This makes activated charcoal an effective treatment for poisonings, intestinal gas, and high cholesterol.
Charcoal is also an effective treatment for prostatitis and BPH when used as a warm enema, according to Charcoal Remedies.com, The Complete Handbook of Natural Charcoal and its Applications by John Dinsley. The recommendation is to dissolve one tablespoon of powdered charcoal in one cup of hot water and stir it well, allowing it to cool to a comfortable temperature. Then insert the mixture into the rectum using a bulb syringe or an enema setup. Allow the charcoal solution to stay in the tract as long as possible. This treatment method may help control the infection causing prostatitis in some men.
