Sometimes I don't know if parents are just trying to be dickheads to their kids or if they're teaching them real, valuable lessons. I don't have kids but I have a nephew, and I don't even know what my intentions are most of the time. I see too many kids and teen around who haven't been taught hard lessons. They think that there are no consequences to anything. Once you suffer some real shit, it's a domino effect. You start to act a little smarter. That is, unless you're a complete moron who just keeps repeating mistakes. There are plenty of those too.
Anything "extract" is the world's biggest prank. All extracts smell so good but then they destroy you by being way too extra. I'm sure many kids have made the fatal mistake of eating vanilla extract.
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.
