Let's pause to think about this one. First, we can talk about the good qualities. This is all steam powered. There's no electricity involved, which is good for the environment, I guess? I hear people worried about gas and water consumption, but never electric consumption. I'm going to guess it's not a huge deal. Secondly, you get two things done at once. Ironing and drinking your morning coffee. Mornings are usually rushed, so that's gotta be a good thing.
Now let's talk about the bad aspects of this product. There's really only one but it's crucial. I have a steamer iron, and I can't help myself from accidentally getting the water from inside the iron all over my clothes. That's just a tiny hole in the iron too. You're expecting me not to spill my open hole of coffee all over my clothes?! This is ridiculous!
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.
