Which sorbent to choose and not make a mistake

Hello!

Thanks for the detailed description. Based on the information provided, I prepared an article with the title “Which sorbent to choose and not make a mistake”:

New Year's holidays are approaching. And although this year many Ukrainians plan to celebrate them quite modestly, they will not do without feasts. Food and alcohol poisoning are not uncommon these days. And if we’ve already eaten or drank “something wrong,” most of us turn to enterosorbents for help. But do we know everything about them?

What are sorbents from a medical point of view today?

According to an infectious disease specialist of the highest category, Doctor of Medical Sciences Irina Bobrova, humanity has been using sorbents for several millennia. In modern medicine, sorbents are widely used to remove foreign substances from the body.

What is the difference between sorbents and enterosorbents?

Enterosorbents are sorbents for oral administration. They differ in shape, chemical structure and spectrum of action. Effective enterosorbents must be non-toxic, easily excreted from the intestines and have high sorption activity.

What to look for when choosing an enterosorbent?

  1. Release form: granules, powder, tablets, capsules. For convenience, it is better to choose tablets or capsules.

  2. Chemical structure - coal, silicon, clay and plant.

  3. Sorption capacity and activity. The higher these indicators, the more effective the sorbent.

  4. Versatility of action. It is better to choose a sorbent with complex action.

Natural sorbents, such as Sorbex based on activated carbon from coconut shells, are characterized by high sorption activity and safety.

Which sorbents are better for poisoning?

In case of poisoning, it is important to quickly remove toxins from the body. A universal and strong sorbent, for example, Sorbex, is best suited. It effectively binds various toxic substances and is safe for humans.
