Of course, the biggest element of Iron Man's suit is that he can fly at insane speeds. And while that aspect is missing from the current generation of exosuits, that tech does exist as well. It's only a matter of time before they fuse the two together and make the ultimate super soldier. We won't have to go to the movies to get our Avengers fix anymore - just a warzone.
Costing a cool $100,000, this jetpack with wings can get you up in the air for a full half hour, although it does apparently take a bit of practice to get it to go where you want. Landing's a bit difficult, too. All in all, it's probably just one for the hardcore. But isn't it wild that this actually even exists in the first place?
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.
