Things get really weird in deep space. The universe is almost infinite, meaning that if it's possible for something to happen, it's almost certainly happening out there somewhere. Burning ice, for example.
First things first, what's an exoplanet? That's easy to answer - it's any planet that exists outside our own solar system, and so far, scientists have discovered thousands of them. This particular one, Gliese 436 B, is relatively close to us - a mere 30 light years away. Around the size of Neptune, the massive density of the planet forces its surface water to remain solid, even though the temperature is in excess of 570 Fahrenheit. Unable to melt, the water boils off as vapor and escapes back out into space, drifting towards the same Gliese sun that boiled it.
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.
