12. Stealthy Eating

It's often said that young children and animals have a lot in common, and here's an example of how that plays out. If you have a dog, and you open a pack of its favorite biscuits, it won't be long before the dog is at your feet, staring up at you hopefully. The same is true with children and their favorite treats.

Portion and appetite control aren't strong suits among infants, and they'll often eat until they make themselves sick. Then they'll be upset afterward! If you're eating something - especially a treat- they'll not only want but expect a little something themselves. That means you have to learn to keep your own treats not only out of sight, but also out of hearing range of your stealthy and observant offspring. You'll never enjoy a bar of chocolate in peace again!

Did You Know...

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.
