    Charcoal grilling is an American tradition that brings communities together through a shared celebration of food. An important aspect of grilling is food preparation and charcoal is used to heat and cook food. Established in the 1920’s by Henry Ford and his relative E.G.

    Charcoal is almost pure carbon making it burn at a higher point and give off more energy. Coal gives off more heat and so it was the chosen fuel for the industrial revolution. The Chinese first used coal and then it was spread around the world. Coal creates a lot of smoke and it is hard to light so some people still used charcoal and wood which had a lower burning point. People tried to refine coal and they got cokes which were mainly carbon and burned at a higher point for longer. They also used wagon ways which were the start of railroads. They found ways to change iron so that it was more efficient. Cast iron is brittle so it was used for nails and such.

    The use of charcoal in treating diseases is a product of long years of scientific studies. Charcoal is defined as an amorphous, porous form of carbon made by the destructive distillation of almost any carbonaceous material such as wood, coconut shells animal bones, and corn cobs. The medicinal properties of charcoal are given strong boost by the United States (a book that tells how to prepare and use medicines). Besides giving direction for making charcoal, the Dispensatory lists several problems that can be treated with charcoal. Activated charcoal exerts its effects by absorbing a wide variety of drugs and chemicals. The important work of charcoal powder in the treatment of diseases is to adsorb chemical substances that are harmful to the body, like germs, viruses, toxins, wound secretions, and other products of infections. To adsorb means to take up, hold on, or spread out on the surface of the molecules. Charcoal works like a magnet.…
