We don't know whether it would be more correct to call Aziz Ansari an actor or a comedian - and we don't mean that as an insult. It's a rare gift to be people to make people laugh, but it's a quality that Ansari seems to have in abundance. He seems to be a genuinely funny and charming man, and so we're happy to see him doing so well for himself. The first time most of us became aware of him was when he landed a part in 'Parks and Recreation,' which he used as a platform for bigger and better things.
In more recent years, Ansari has been fostering a close relationship with Netflix, who have bought into him in a big way. He makes many exclusive shows for them, including 'Master of None,' which has met with a great deal of critical acclaim. Not bad for a guy who's only 5 foot 6!
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.
