Why does it seem that masked men are always picking on Carrie Fisher? Oh, well. She seems to love it, so we're all good. Stormtroopers look like masked villains with no personality, almost like robots, but inside each one of them is a human being yearning for human connection. You can hear it in their voices when they talk to each other. These aren't trained killers. These are just dudes trying to get through the day.
I bet being stationed on the Death Star felt like the best job. "No one is going to kill us while we're stationed here on the main base. This is awesome." Oh, how wrong they were. The Death Star ended up being the absolute worst place to be if you wanted to live. All thanks to Luke Skywalker, that terrorist.
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.
