🔎Specimen of the Day🔍 BLACK FRIDAY. 10/14/16:Carbo Activatus Okay okay not exactly what you think of when you think herbs. But this substance is kind of plant derivative made from coconut shells (this kind). It's exposed to high temperatures and treated by reheating with oxidizing gas. Carbo Activatus is pure carbon specially processed to make it highly adsorbent. The gas causes the charcoal to develop lots of "pores" that help it "trap" Chemicals. Making this a gem to haves in your wellness routine. It's healing properties have been documented since as early as 1550 BC by the Egyptians. -Tunde Lo(tus) Your neighborhood Herb Dealer Charcoal Courtesy of @spiritandbeyond #herbalist #specimenoftheday #carboactivatus #plantscience #wellness #greenhousewellness #blackfriday #miamiherbalist #miamiherbs #health #spa #plantbased #apothecary #miamiapothecary #tgif #friday #fridayfeels
