We're constantly told that we shouldn't leave our children in front of the television for too many hours at a time, and that's fair enough. There's a whole world around them, and they should be experiencing it for themselves. Children need constant stimulation, and so you should always take them on walks, and to play centers, and encourage them to develop hobbies.
That's not always practical though. They're always capable of creating drama wherever they are, and any kind of group activity involving other children inevitably causes at least one falling-out. Sometimes - not all the time, but sometimes - there's nothing wrong with putting their favorite TV show or movie on for them and taking a few hours for yourself to quietly breathe. Just go easy on the wine, they might call upon you at any moment!
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.
