For humans, there is nothing better than being told a story. Having someone read to you sends you to a magical place unlike any other. For dogs, it's the most boring activity in the world. They just think you're scolding them for a really long, boring time. Unless you're reading in the same voice that you say "who wants some treats?" then the dog doesn't want to hear it. And if you are reading like that, you better have treats to go with it.
There's probably some hipster who reads to their dogs every night because they read that it helps the dog's brain develop or something. The thing about idiots like that is that you can't criticize them because they're well intentioned. You tell them that they are dumb and their response is, "you think wanting my dog to be smarter makes me a bad person?" Freakin' hipsters. They are the worst pet owners.
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.
