Theodore Roosevelt was the 26th President of the United States (from 1901 to 1909). He's one of the four faces depicted on Mount Rushmore and he played a major role in the Progressive Era in the United States during the early 1900s. He was born with health problems (such as asthma) which he managed to overcome. He had a wide range of interests showcased in his books, such as "The Naval War of 1812."
In addition, Roosevelt was a war hero as he led the Rough Riders in the Spanish-American War. He became President at age 42 which makes him the youngest one yet. He put forward his "Square Deal" domestic policies which strived for fairness in regards to the common citizen. In fact, Roosevelt prompted the building of numerous national parks, monuments, and forests intended to preserve national resources. On top of his achievements, he won the 1906 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in ending the Russo-Japanese War.
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.
