So how does this work? Why are these noodles made with black bamboo Charcoal healthy? Where do the minerals come from? Let us take a look at the common tree. It is from trees that the Bamboo Charcoal Noodles have their humble beginnings. As trees and shrubs grow they soak up necessary minerals from the ground. Because of this process, when trees and shrubs are made into charcoal, these highly oxidized minerals will be easily dissolved in water. Therefore, if the Bamboo Charcoal is placed in water, the minerals which are trapped in the charcoal will begin to dissolve. At this time, the water will  be changed to Mineral Water. How exciting can cooking be? As a side note, if you use spring water to soak your charcoal in, you have doubled your medicinal effectiveness.
