Let's not forget about the horrifying truth that Luke's aunt and uncle were burned alive in search of C3PO and R2D2. Luke came home to that. That's traumatizing. He had zero time to process that. A few days later he was in an X-wing trying to take down the Death Star. Life is funny that way. One day you're moisture farming with your aunt and uncle, the next minute you're killing thousands of people in a terrorist attack.
Have you heard that argument? The argument is that when Luke destroys the Death Star it's very similar to a terrorist attack. There were thousands of people on board, many of them being non-military personnel. That turns the whole story on its head, doesn't it? You could argue that even if that's true it was for the greater good, but still. What about all the janitors?
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.
