48. Shine Bright Like a Diamond

Millie has a look of fierce determination. The determination? To look fierce. Mission accomplished. As cool as this outfit looks, I don't know if I could handle giant sequins up and down my arms. That seems very uncomfortable to me, but then again I am just an uncomfortable person. I also tend to make people feel uncomfortable too. It might even be a superpower. I could be invited to Xavier's School for the Gifted, but I'd just make everyone uncomfortable.

Stranger Things Fact Number Forty Eight: Every great couple hashtag. Take #Kimye for example. Kim Kardashian and Kanye's hashtag. Or like mine, #Juliolone. Julio for me, and alone for the person I'm not with. In the Stranger Things fan world, Joyce and Hopper are #Jopper. It's kind of a harsh sounding word, but it's better than #Hoyce.

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.
