Here's a tip in case you ever come across someone who looks like this. You know, a person wearing all black, with heavy goth makeup, and a real life crow perched on them. My advice is never to mess with that person. They could very well be the next Crow. The Crow was a pseudo-superhero played by Bruce Lee's son. If you start talking to this person, you may end up dead, or at the very least they'll suck you into a lengthy conversation about their neo-goth band called 'Darkest Soul.'
I'm all about interesting styles, but when an animal is part of your style, I get a little weirded out. When birds of death are anywhere near me I get weirded out as well. I'm just not keen on the threat of getting my eyes poked out during my commute.
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.
