Bamboo Life is the brand name of Bamboo Charcoal Products by Globalife. TAKESUMI (Mysterious Bamboo Charcoal) Takesumi is the Japanese word for bamboo charcoal (Take=bamboo, Sumi=charcoal). It is a charcoal but not just a fuel. Takesumi has been used in Japan and has become prominant recently for its magic power. It is very versatile. Here are the mysterious powers of Takesumi, bamboo charcoal. 1. Purifying, Deodorant, and Dehumidification Takesumi has a similar function to wood charcoal but its power is much stronger. Takesumi has 10 times more holes on it compared with wooden charcoal. When you put some pieces in drinking water, it takes the chemical residue from the water and releases its rich minerals into the water. It makes the taste of the water far better. Takesumi also has a deodorant function like activated carbon. If you put it in a refrigerator, it will reduce the smell. We had an experimental outdoor toilet with just Takesumi powder. It does not have any flushing function and it does not smell at all. Takesumi has a dehumidification effect as well. If you lay Takesumi powder in the store room, it will reduce the humidity as well as the smell. In Japan, it has been very popular to lay Takesumi (or wooden charcoal) underneath the floors of houses. It reduces the humidity in the house. It reduces the damage from insect attack. It also has healing power with its energy field of negative Ions.
2. Agricultural and Pastoral Use Takesumi has been used a lot for agriculture and raising stock in Japan. If you apply Takesumi or Takesumi powder in the soil, it will increase the numbers and activity of micro-organisms. Takesumi has got many holes on it and it will become an attraction for bacteria. (1g piece of bamboo charcoal has the same surface as one tennis court.) Take-Su is a bamboo vinegar. It is produced during the process of making charcoal by cooling the smoke. It is acidic and has a miracle power in various areas. It revives the power of plant life, of animals and of course of humans, too. If you apply Takesu on your plants, it will strengthen them. If you give it to animals, they will become healthier. If you get sick, you can even drink Takesu and it will recover your health. Takesu also has repressive effect on insects, so you can use it as an organic insecticide for your vege garden. There are many farmers in Japan who feed charcoal to their livestock. It strengthens the health of the animals and also enhance the taste of their meat. You can easily test it by not mixing Takesumi in the feed but giving it instead separately. If their health condition needs charcoal, they will eat it. Of course, Takesumi is good for your pet, too. 3. Health Recovery and Healing This is the biggest power of Takesumi which has been making Takesumi popular in Japan. Takesumi releases minus ions into the air and it will make you feel good. Takesumi also has a very strong energy field which causes many mysterious effects. It may have a good vibration for lives. It is said that Takesumi has a power to set everything in a good balance, not having the power to make things changed to one direction. It is Takesumi s function to get everything back to the most well-balanced position. This is why there is no harm. If you get sick, you can take Takesumi or Takesu to recover your health. It enhances your healing power. There have been many reports that even very bad cancer has been remedied. One of the pro-soccer teams in Japan, Jubiro Iwata is using Takesumi a lot. They laid Takesumi under the soccer ground. This is of course good for the lawn but it also gives a good feeling to the players. They use Takesumi and Takesu when the players get injured. One of the famous players once broke a bone. He applied Takesumi on his injury and had an incrediblly quick recovery.
Takesumi is conducted when it s produced with high temperature over 1000 degrees C resulting in many miraculous functions possibly of magnetic power. It may be explained in the future using the theory of Photon or Graviton. However, it actually has many more mysterious powers than the functions explained scientifically. Shikitan Shikitan has become very popular in Japan. In new building houses or old houses, Takesumi and/or Takesumi powder is laid underneath the floors of a house. Wooden charcoal also can be used for Shikitan which has lots of merits. Giving a healing field to the house Good sleeping, Comfortable Living, etc. Dehumidifying the house Avoiding fungus, damaging of the house, etc. Giving a preventive in case of insect invasion. Termites are a serious problem in Japan as there are many wooden houses. The application of Takesumi is designed according to the plan of the house by a special method similar to Feng Shui.
