Football is one of the biggest American sports, which is no easy feat considering the huge followings there are for baseball, basketball, and soccer. Nothing brings people together like two teams of men smashing into each other for glory. It is easy to get wrapped up in the spectacle.
Everyone has their team when it comes to football. It is the team they can't help but root for. When it comes to picking your main team, it often has to do with where you come from: the city you were born. People tend to pick the team that they grew up with or that play for the city they currently live.
Another reason we pick the team we root for is because of their logo and colors. If your team colors aren't good, it can make it less exciting to wear their jersey. It is even worse if the team logo is bad. This artist has redesigned some crazy new helmets for 32 teams. You be the judge if they are an improvement or not.
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.
