We were watching Empire Strikes Back scared that Luke was going to fall to his death. Turns out that he would have been just fine. There was a pile of pillows under him the entire time. It's like Darth Vader is trying to put Luke to bed but Luke wants to stay up for one more story. "Come on, Dad. Tell me the story about how you killed those Tusken Raiders." / "Don't forget, son. I killed the women and the children too."
It's amazing how much of that set that they built. That's a serious structure if they can fight on it and have Luke hang onto it. I figured they'd just use paper mache or something like that. All I'm saying is that if you want to redesign your home to feel like Star Wars, it's doable.
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.
