The theme of law and order is never far from the forefront of any political campaign - especially when it comes to the most senior political position of them all. It would be helpful if our elected leader knew a thing or two about how the law of the lands works - so who better than Judge Judy Sheindlin, who's been working with the law for her entire life?
Sheindlin is a familiar face to the American public from her many years as 'Judge Judy,' in which she adjudicates on smaller matters of civil law. That doesn't mean to say she doesn't understand the bigger picture though - she does. She's also refreshingly open minded when it comes to her politics; she's said in the past that she voted for both Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, but didn't vote for anybody in 2012 as she wasn't pleased with either option. The country could use someone who would abandon party lines and just do what they thought was right for the country.
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.
