The Law And The Benefits Of Nature

In Africa, we are so rich, yet so poor. I have wandered and have tried all I could within my reach, to bring an awareness, but nothing seems to come out of it! Because we have left nature, nature has left us to our fate. My discovery is simple and the solution right at our fingertips.

Charcoal!

This is one of the most disregarded products in our homes. We only see the need for it when it is time to set the fire for Banku. However, if you really need first aid, charcoal is something you must keep handy! It is one of the most medicinal products you can have at home due to its poison extraction ability. Here are some benefits of charcoal you never thought about.

1. Preventing Odour

Does your shoe smell bad? Just get some charcoal and put it in them. Do you have any bad smell in your room? Drop some charcoal where you suspect the smell could be coming from. Does your fridge or freezer smell? Put a piece of charcoal in it! Do you have strong body odour? Just make a powder out of charcoal and use. Charcoal is very good at getting rid of bad smell. Ever wondered why your parents always scooped out the ash from the coal pot to pour in the hen coop or toilet before sweeping? That was to get rid of the odour.

2. Keeping Food Fresh

If you want your vegetables to be fresh all the time, just make a solution out of charcoal and leave your vegetables in them.

3. Removing Toxins From Food Substances

The use of fertilizers on plants and vegetables is dangerous to human health; making them unwholesome and poisonous. Leave the vegetables in a charcoal solution overnight and it’ll take care of the toxins. If you suspect any food contains too many chemicals, just drop them in a charcoal solution for some hours; you’re good to go.

4. Teeth Whitening

If you want to whiten your teeth, Just get yourself some charcoal and grab hold of a plantain stalk. Make a powder out of the charcoal, mash the tip of the plantain stalk, dip it into the charcoal powder and brush your teeth with it for a week.

5. Sour Soup That Went Bad

Did your groundnut soup or palm nut soup go bad? No need to worry about pouring it all away. Just put it back on fire and drop a piece of charcoal in it. This will extract all the bad taste and smell and restore the soup to its fresh state.

6. Detoxifying

Do you have a hangover out of a drink out with friends the previous night? Just have some charcoal with you and chew on it. To make it more effective, make a nice solution out of it and drink. You’re good to go!

7. Neutralizing Alcohol

If you mistakenly did some wild mixing and feel it can knock you out, just add some charcoal to the mixture and your problem is solved. Or if you took in too much alcohol, just drink some charcoal solution.

8. Healing Of Wounds

Do you have a situation where someone’s wound has become so infected to the state doctors are saying they have to cut the affected area? Don’t stress over it, get a large amount of charcoal powder and pour it on the wound. This will extract all the poison from the wound and also help it heal faster. If you have a cut and you want to treat it fast, just get some powdered charcoal and pour on it.

9. Water Filtration

Do you feel your water is contaminated? You don’t need all these products on the market. Charcoal can do better, just drop some amount of it in it. Don’t worry about the colour, it is safe, you can even chew on charcoal. It is far safer than eating chicken from KFC.

10. Skin Cleansing

Do you have pimples, acne or any skin disease you really want to get rid of or do you want a very smooth face or skin? All you need is charcoal. Make a thick solution out of it and smear it on your body and leave it on for some hours before taking your bath. It will leave your skin smooth and fresh.

11. Stain Removal

Do you have some stubborn stain in your kitchen, washroom or on your tiles? You actually need charcoal to get rid of it. I know you’re imagining how this black stainy product can actually remove stains right? Just try it, it works like magic.

12. Getting Rid of A Bloated Stomach

13. Gets Rid of Bad Cholesterol
