Carbo Vegetabilis / Carbo Veg / Carb-v

Formal Name: Carbo Vegetabilis

Also Known As: Carbo Veg, Charcoal, Wood Charcoal

Charcoal is something that we have all used or at least have some familiarity with. It is a mineral that happens to be quite durable and has therefore been used for a variety of different purposes through the years.

It was discovered within the world of homeopathy years ago, and prior to that it was used as a sort of purifier for the skin. After homeopathy found that charcoal could serve as the basis for a very helpful homeopathic remedy, it took on a new and very valuable role.

Though charcoal is the base of the homeopathic remedy carbo veg, you will find virtually no traces of it. To prepare it, fist sized bits of wood are cut, heated until red hot, and then sealed in an airtight jar. The ash that comes about through this process is then triturated, diluted, and then succussed. This forms the compound known as carbo veg within homeopathy and it has some distinct and helpful uses.
