Make Your Way Across the Salar De Uyuni in Bolivia

Bolivia is another place that you must see, due to its natural beauty. Another plus is that Bolivia is still an unexplored place when it comes to most tourists, meaning you would be one of the first to check out the place. The Salar de Uyuni is the world's largest salt flat, measured at about 4,086 square miles, which is about 10,582 square kilometers. That's biggest than some countries in Europe.

The salt flat is located in southwest Bolivia, near the crest of the Andes. The place is 11,995 feet above sea level, which is taller than most mountains in the US. Due to the elevation of the Salar de Uyuni, some people have problems keeping their breath. The Salar was formed as a result of several different transformations that happened between several prehistoric lakes.

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.
