Commuting in the car versus commuting on the bus or subway is a total different experience. There are positives and negatives to both. When you're driving you are completely alone and in your own private space. You're also in total control compared to having to wait for the bus or subway schedule.
The problem with driving is that you have to pay attention. That means you can't do things like eat, read, play videogames, and any other fun thing you can do while on the train. The problem is that you have to share that space with people who can sometimes be total weirdos.
The people in these photos are either masters of taking the train, or they are just straight up crazy. From people sleeping to people setting up entertainment centers, these people are making it work for them at the cost of looking extremely weird. You won't believe what some of these people do on, or even OUTSIDE the train.
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.
