                                While activated charcoal is commonly used in emergency medicine to treat poisoning and overdoses, its addition to food products like charcoal black buns offers limited to no proven health benefits. The black coloration is primarily for aesthetic appeal, and any advertised digestive benefits are marginal and lack strong scientific evidence.
