A Twister Is Born

A Twister Is Born

If you saw this coming over the horizon, you'd be inclined to give up and just accept your fate. One tornado is difficult enough to deal with. Seven at once would surely consume everything in its path and leave nothing in its wake but broken wreckage. Fortunately for the person who created this image, that isn't really what we're seeing.

This is actually a time-lapse photo, showing the same tornado being formed. It starts out life as a funnel cloud before connecting to the ground, and then picking up shape and speed as it becomes a full-blown twister. Even though it looks huge and powerful in its final stage, this is a comparatively small tornado which probably didn't represent much in the way of danger and will have blown out quite quickly. That's probably why the photographer felt safe to stay there and record the entire event.

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.
