Below we want to share with you a message sent to John and his answer, this is a great subject to research and to be prepared. Message: Hello, I live in Australia. My father gardens a lot and we are worried about brown snakes and taipan snakes. Can charcoal be used for a taipan snake bite, or a deadly brown snake bite? If venom was injected in a bite, would drinking charcoal slurry and putting a poultice on the bite be enough to save someone? Have you heard any charcoal/snake bit stories? I would be very interested to hear any charcoal/snake bit stories/experiences you have heard Thank you Kind regards Responce: Hello Thank you for contacting us. Yes, charcoal has been used successfully for some serious snake bites. The main emphasis is time. So having charcoal available nearby can be lifesaving. We never travel anywhere without it. Here is a page of stories. I encourage you to get the book CharcoalRemedies.com In AU you can purchase it from Dr John Clark Clarkhealthed <clarkhealthed@aol.com> http://www.charcoalremedies.com/snake_bites There is a lot of info on our website check out the different links and videos. http://www.charcoalremedies.com/health_conditions Make sure to check out our other blog post "Activated Charcoal for snake bites research" Sincerely John Dinsley logo
