Also known as 'Dog the Bounty Hunter', Duane Lee Chapman, is, as you may have guessed, an American bounty hunter. If you're not familiar with him and you're wondering how a bounty hunter becomes famous, we'll fill you in. Of course, it was a reality television series that brought Chapman the fame he has today. It ran from 2004 to 2012 and was called 'Dog the Bounty Hunter'. He then starred in another reality series for two years between 2013 and 2015, titled "Dog and Beth: On the Hunt'.
In 2007, Chapman wrote his first book, You Can Run But You Can't Hide, in which he detailed the abuse he endured as a child at the hands of his father. In the book, he says, "As a young boy, I never knew that other kids didn't get hit by their dads. I thought it was a rite of passage to have my father knock me around."
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.
