This is a spoiler for those of you who don't have children yet; your child will be 'on you' constantly. They want to be carried in your arms when you go outside. They want to sit on your knee when you're at home. They want to hold your hand when they're old enough to walk, and they may even still want to sleep in your bed when you come home. Even the most mild-mannered parent can become weary of the constant proximity, but try to cherish it because one day, they won't want to do it anymore.
One day, your child will grow up, and they'll think they're too big for cuddles. They'll grow too large to sit on your knee. They'll be too independent to sleep in your bed. So, make the most of it, no matter how inconvenient it sometimes is. These days won't last forever, and they'll never come again.
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.
