Annihilus? They hardly know us! See? I told you I was going to throw in some jokes here (I never said they were going to be good). I do know this thing's origin though, so don't worry. You're about to get learnt up. Annihilus started as one type of life spore that an alien species was meant to spread around the world. The ship carrying Annihilus (this was before he was the artist known as Annihilus) crash landed on a planet, and as the crew died they released his spore. He became a bug, but ended up learning the alien's technology to become strong and intelligent. I make it sound easy, but it really wasn't.
That's right. The 50th strongest person in the Marvel universe started out as a bug. Talk about not letting your upbringing affect your future. What's your excuse?
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.
