Try not to think about this one too hard - it might make you sweat. That word we use to describe the process of sweat forming in our pores and escaping onto the skin is another one of those where your eyes and your brain conspire against you at the beginning. It's the opposite of the problem we had with "prescription" earlier on in the list.
If you hear someone say "pre-spire", then don't correct them straight away, that might stress them out, and stress is one of the major causes of perspiration! Instead, find a quiet moment later on and gently tell them that the right way to say it is "per-spire". It's yet another one that's spelled as it's supposed to be said. We're still not totally sure how we managed to mess up so many words.
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.
