It can be hard to determine what's fake news and what's real news, especially if you don't have the time to track down sources. That being said, let me give you a little tip. If your news is coming from text on an image, or a meme, then it's fake news. Real news doesn't come in that format. I don't see esteemed journalists in their offices putting that stuff together.
Immediate red flags come up when looking at this Facebook post that claims a recent school shooting wasn't reported because an armed citizen shot the shooter before he could hurt anyone. The implication is that the liberal news doesn't want to further the "good guy with a gun" narrative. Too bad the only part that's true is that there was a man with a gun... who ended up killing himself.
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.
