Unless you happen to be a fashion designer, dressing your child is the closest you'll ever come to running a catwalk show. You're their personal stylist, and you get to choose their outfits every day. A lot of parents take pride in that, and make sure their child looks more 'on point' when it comes to fashion than any other baby in town. That's fun for a minute, but it quickly becomes very expensive.
Babies grow, and they grow fast. The designer outfit you bought for them in January will be completely useless by June at the latest. Before long, you'll find yourself revising your clothes-buying strategy. Gone are the snug-fitting fashionable clothes you started them off with; now you're buying big, roomy clothes that they'll grow into eventually. It may not be fashionable, but it's a lot cheaper and much more practical!
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.
