If other teens are like me, they don't want to help with anything. I remember the many times my parents told me that we're painting the house. I couldn't understand why they kept saying "we." One, I didn't remember agreeing to paint anything. Two, why spend money on house paint? Let's buy an X-box instead. I'd say that's an accurate description of how most teenagers would react.
These parents were very smart. "If you don't want to help paint the house, then this is what we'll do." It's a genius plan that leaves the kid at a complete disadvantage. Kids at school will have an easy new nickname for this kid. You see, when you call someone a dork it usually isn't that impressive of an insult. If the person's room is painted to say "dork," then that's a pretty solid nickname.
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.
