Sleep technology has vastly improved over the past five decades. Praise the powers that be for removing the waterbed trend from the face of the earth and providing us with better mattresses for a multitude of different ailments being that we're all physically built different and have different sleeping styles. Some of us prefer to load up on pillows and hyke up our necks, some sleep with a pillow in between our legs, some of us sleep with a ton of blankets in order to maintain a decent body temperature while others run hot and can't even sleep covered by a single sheet, or with clothes on at that.
Luckily, for those of you who might get a little sweaty in your sleep causing you to wake in the middle of the night soaked in your own juices, a cooling gel memory foam pillow has been developed to ensure that you stay at a cool temperature throughout the night.
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.
