Ah, yes. The awkward date. Or, in the 21st Century, the awkward date that both parties are simultaneously telling all their friends about on social media. Let's hope they don't have mutual friends who'll share it with each other. In all seriousness, we're all probably guilty of this occasionally. We forget the people we're with and lose ourselves in the world of the internet
Every now and then, we could do with a reminder to put the phones away and engage with each other. That's the purpose of this image. A park is a lovely thing to look at so long as you can take your eyes off the screens for a moment! Check the sports score later. That notification probably doesn't need looking at right now. Be more like the butterflies. They appear to be having a great time.
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.
