Hit or Miss: "The First" - Hulu

Hit or Miss: "The First" - Hulu

Sean Penn starring in streaming television. Now that's exciting! We're used to seeing Sean Penn on the big screen, or in rehab, but in this case he's taking on the small screen. 'The First' chronicles the first manned missions to Mars. It's a fiction, but much like 'The Martian,' it has a realistic tone that really puts you into the reality of the situation. This isn't the type of series you'd see on SyFy, no disrespect to SyFy. This is realistic science-fiction drama set in a future that isn't totally unrealistic.

This show might be a miss for people who don't appreciate the intricacies of launching a space mission, so feel free to skip it if that's you. If you are interested in the topic, you'll definitely want to see watch this series on Hulu.

Did You Know...

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.
