Have you ever left a piece of metal in a hot car and it turned into a searing piece of metal? Now imagine being in a suit of metal as it slowly heats up to a searing heat. That's what C3PO had to go through in that suit. I can feel for him. They have a little standing gurney set up for him just so he won't fall down and pass out. "Guys, if I fall, I'm not getting back up."
This is what the characters at your favorite amusement park have to go through every day. It might not be as hot as the desert, but it might as well be inside of one of those giant costumes. Next time you're letting your kid tug on Mickey and chase him around, remember that there's a person inside that costume who is dying a slow and painful death.
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.
