My name is Kali and I'm the founder and Director of Guide To Organics, and avid researcher of all things health. It’s my vision to create simple hacks for a healthier life and share my knowledge with you.

Healthy Hacks was born because of that finely powdered and very messy black stuff… yes that would be activated charcoal!

I was listening to a health summit earlier this year where they brought up all some of the amazing benefits for your health such as longevity and anti-ageing. It piqued my interest and I was curious about trying some. Being a person who is highly conscious about what I put into my body I, of course, started to do some research.

I began to contact companies to find out details and specifications for their products and quickly found myself coming up against many brick walls. Companies just weren’t forthcoming about what they were selling and saying to people.

I came to realise there were indeed differences in the charcoals being sold in Australia but at that point, I still didn’t know which one to use. I was becoming confused and frustrated at the lack of transparency.

Finally, I got lucky. I found a terrific supplier who explained to me the differences in the grades.

He explained that when he supplies businesses with the higher grade of charcoal he can provide them with a certificate to prove it’s guaranteed for human consumption, but with the lower grade he can’t. And, of course, the lower grade is much cheaper - like half the price!

The higher-grade charcoal has been through a process to reduce the ash content and inorganics like copper and arsenic - not exactly something I want to be ingesting.

It has also been more thoroughly pulverised, resulting in a higher surface area. This higher surface area is what you need when you want to adsorb toxins, especially in an emergency such as a poisoning or overdose.

Armed with this knowledge, I went back to the companies who I knew were selling the lower grade of charcoal and asked them for accountability and transparency in their claims. I wanted to see certificates to prove their charcoal was guaranteed safe for human consumption. But, perhaps predictably, they couldn’t. Because they weren’t buying the right grade.

And so that’s how I came to launch Healthy Hacks Activated Charcoal. I wanted to get the right grade onto the shelves of health food stores and into peoples homes.

With much love,
Kali
