It's impossible to say Bill Nye's name without tacking 'Science Guy!' onto the end of it. There are far worse things to be known for than an association with science though; at least people know you're a learned and intelligent person. Most people would agree that we could use a few more smart people in Washington, and Nye is eminently qualified in that respect.
Nye may even have some useful connections in and around the White House and the political world to get him started. He was an unofficial adviser to the Barack Obama White House on scientific issues and threw his weight behind Obama in both of the former President's election campaigns. He's been active again recently, challenging Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez about her own views on environmental issues like climate change. Nye would stand for scientific solutions to political and social problems.
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.
