Military cover-ups, and top secret military bases housing black-ops alien technology, is not a new thing in the conspiracy world. Many people forget, though, that it's not just the United States that have them. Almost every country in the world has their own military installations, and many of them are far, far more secretive than those in the States (hello, Switzerland!). Why isn't the focus ever on them?

Well finally, it looks like people are paying attention to other parts of the world. In this case, it's the Australian desert and a little-known base called Pine Gap, smack bang in the middle of the country. There's no-one to bother them there but curious kangaroos and the occasional dust storm. But now, there might be one more thing: intense public scrutiny...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
