If you didn't experience it when it was happening, it's hard to imagine how huge the Jonas Brothers were at the peak of their fame. What people sometimes don't realize is that their first album was a huge commercial failure, and they were lucky to get a second bite of the cherry in 2007. That release made them stars, and they subsequently went on to become fixtures of the Disney Channel, which made them icons to a generation of children. Now he's grown up, Joe Jonas is married to 'Game of Thrones' star Sophie Turner.
Jonas is a good-looking young man, and if he wanted to spend his days going from girl to girl, he could probably 'catch them all,' just like his animated lookalike. Stick a baseball cap on Jonas, and he becomes Ash Ketchum, of Pokémon fame. We wonder if Jonas and Turner have a little Pikachu somewhere in their home? Admit it, if you'd seen Jonas out on the streets playing 'Pokémon Go,' you'd have done a double-take.
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.
