I have a big problem with mountain climbing, personally. I really don't like the idea of dying from a strong gust of wind. If you're just walking down the street you don't have to worry about that too much. When you're standing on the top of a mountain it starts to become something worth worrying about. Just one gust and all of a sudden that's it. "How'd Julio die?" / "A light breeze."
This woman has absolutely no fear hanging off of the Pedra de Gavea Mountain in Brazil. She opted for the "legs dangling off" pose, which does seem a lot safer than going head first. At least you can hang on for dear life. You wouldn't catch me dead doing that - actually maybe that's not right. You would catch me dead doing that. I'd have a heart attack.
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.
