I don't know why it's so difficult for some men to give a good handshake. I'm not saying mine will knock your socks off (or gloves off, might be a better phrasing), but at least it doesn't feel like you're grabbing a handful of wet spaghetti. Just grab and grip. You don't need to be strong. Just grip as hard as you would if you were picking up a sword. Why did I choose a sword for my example? Because I'm that manly.
I recently learned that at an early age my parents taught me to shake everyone's hand that I met. I'd be this little three year old going up to people and extending my hand for a shake. I don't think anyone blamed me for my noodle grip back then. My bones weren't even fully formed yet.
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.
