Gerald Ford is known for being the 38th president of the US, serving from 1974 to 1977. Prior to his elevation to the presidency, he served as the 40th vice president, between the years of 1973 and 1974. He is known as the only person in the US to ever serve in both positions (president and vice president) without being elected by the general public.
He is also known for having the shortest duration of his presidency in American history, which is 895 days - not even three full years. He was born in Omaha, Nebraska, and he attended the University of Michigan and Yale Law School. The attack on Pearl Harbor made him enlist in the US Naval Reserve, after which he left the US a lieutenant commander. He started his political career in 1949.
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.
