Do you laugh every time you see someone on television or in the newspapers say how important it is that you get eight hours good sleep a night? They're hilarious, aren't they? We can only assume they've never had children. When your baby is young, they don't operate on your clock; you operate on theirs. That's not ideal when they're seemingly always so full of energy. If the sun comes up at 5 am, you can expect your young children to wake up with it and expect breakfast!
When it's time for them to go to school, though, they get more routine in their lives, and they begin to slow down a little. It's occasionally tempting, as per the depiction in this cartoon, to get your own back for all those long lie-ins you promised yourself you were going to have, but never got chance. Try to keep your evil delight inside your head, though. Wake them up with a smile instead!
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.
