How to treat food poisoning.

 I have had food poisoning four times in my life; it can be one of the most painful experiences you can endure. My experience usually lasts about eight hours with residual stomach soreness following. 

If you catch the early symptoms, you may be able to reach treatment without much pain following. If not, you may still take said treatment to mitigate a full-blown food poisoning experience by quickly cleaning out the toxins. Early symptoms include nausea, dizziness, and coldness, usually from the sweating that has no obvious cause.

The treatment is, and one still used today by medical practitioners, crushed charcoal. Mix a tablespoon or more into a cup of water and drink it. Having a vile ready just in case is a good plan. The treatment also helps with plant poisons and maybe parasites.

In brief the mechanism of effect is the ability of the charcoal of absorb chemicals and substances in its environment.
