Captain Universe is a title similar to Green Lantern. Sorry to mix my universes, but it's the quickest analogy I could think of. No one person is Green Lantern. The Green Lantern is whoever the ring chooses. That's the same with the the energy that makes Captain Universe, well, Captain Universe. Some alien/celestial beings from another world sent out the energy (the Uni-Power), but no one really knows anything about them, so screw 'em.
At one point the Uni-Power found Spider-Man, though he didn't get all of the powers. It's a good thing he got them though, because his next set of battles would require all of the power he could get. Some people get all the luck. Not only does Peter Parker get bit by a radioactive spider, he gets the Uni-Power too. I can't even get a good parking space.
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.
