Dogs use charcoal for bad breath, why not humans?

Hello:
I always try to eat the raw diet, and it works when I do it.
I eat the good trio of bad-breath-destroying foods: Fruits, Vegetables, and Green Leafy Smoothies.
However, on weekends I like to break the diet (because I usually hang out with my friends on the weekends) so that's when I eat the evil trio of bad-breath-causing foods: grains, meats, and dairy.
This always makes my bad breath come roaring back. It is very obvious that non-raw food is the cause of my bad breath.
So I got to thinking. Dogs also have bad breath when they eat cheap dog food that has grain fillers in it. And pet stores sell "Charcoal" doggie biscuits to combat this horrible dog breath.
If it works for dogs, why not humans?
So today I went to the Vitamin store and bought "activated charcoal" pills. Pretty cheap. I plan to take it after my bad food that I eat on the weekend, to see if it helps dampen down the raging dragon breath that I get whenever I eat non-raw food.
Anybody else here ever try this?
