For a lot of parents, this occurs on almost a daily basis. Your child will say or do something that's wildly inappropriate, and your natural response to it is to laugh, but you can't. Laughing would tell the child that what they did is funny, and they shouldn't know that until they're older!
Unless you're raising a little angel, at some point you'll get a phone call like this one, and you'll be told that your child did something truly outrageous. Who among us didn't see someone at school moon the class during our education? You'll have to talk to them about it when you get home, but it's better to get all the laughter out of your system before you walk through the door. You have to set a good example, even if you know you would have cried laughing if you were there!
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.
