George H. W. Bush, famous for being the father of George W. Bush among other things, was the 43rd President of the United States. He served for a single term, from 1989 to 1993. Before he assumed the presidency, he worked as the 43rd Vice President of the United States from 1981 to 1989. Although his son is famous for starting wars in the Middle East, it was actually George H. W. Bush who began this tradition, with the First Gulf War.
He is a member of the Republican Party (just like his son), and he has also served the US as a congressman, ambassador, and Director of Central Intelligence. Before becoming active in politics, he worked in the public sector, where he just went by the name of George Bush, until eventually using his full initials. His presidency also saw the disbandment of the USSR, which helped ease the strains on his foreign policy.
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.
