This photo of a dad and his son is confusing. You might think that this is a prank or some type of April's Fools Day costume, but that is not the case. These two were LARPing (live action roleplaying) as knights when an arrow struck the dad. In the 21st century. The good news here is that the dad seems to be doing just fine, meaning the arrow missed all vital organs in the area.
The son, on the other hand, seems to be just blistering with shame. He probably spend the entire night looking at the floor. Things probably improved in the morning, as his dad looks like an understanding type of person - he probably just pat his son on the back and told him everything's fine, and there are no hard feelings between them.
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.
