These are the amazing Haiku Stairs, or Stairway to Heaven as it's also called. It looks like a mini-golf version of the Great Wall of China, doesn't it? This particular shot of the stairs really shows how large and wondrous they are. I'd really love to check it out, but I'd most likely be asking, "Can you point in the direction of the Escalator to Heaven? Or maybe the Haiku Elevator."
The one bad thing about getting a picture like this is that you need to climb a lot of those stairs to get it. There's no short cut around that. Maybe that's why it's not quite a selfie. The dude was most likely about to pass out so he's hiding his face. I can relate since all it takes is a brisk walk for me to look like I'm dying of diphtheria.
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.
