Carbo Animalis is a homeopathic remedy made from animal charcoal, useful for the health of lymphatic tissue, nervous system and gastrointestinal mucosa. Let’s find out better.


Description of Carbo Animalis

The homeopathic remedy Carbo Animalis originates from animal charcoal. The latter, also called bone charcoal or animal black or even bone black, is obtained from the carbonization of bones and animal tissues.

The result is an odorless black powder, practically insoluble in water and alcohol, with a strong adsorbing power, for this reason it is also an activated carbon, able to absorb both gaseous substances and solid substances dispersed or dissolved in different solutions.

Today, for the most common uses, animal charcoal has been almost completely replaced by charcoal of plant origin.

The animal charcoal used comes from charred ox skin.
