While Steve Young was the main provider for Jerry Rice's touches, Rice's individual accolades are simply untouchable. During an era where receivers weren't as coddled as they are today, Jerry Rice achieved the impossible. Rice made the game look effortless. While he wasn't the fastest receiver the world has ever seen, his route running ability could ditch your team's greatest cover corner with ease. His hands were soft and pillowy, instantaneously stopping football's that looked like speeding bullets without a single bobble.
After being selected 16th overall in the 1985 NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers, Jerry Rice would spend sixteen years out of his twenty-season career with the Bay Area squad. To this very day, Jerry Rice holds an insane fourteen NFL records including most career receiving yards (22,895), most career receptions (1,549), and most career touchdown receptions (197). It also doesn't hurt that he's a 3x Super Bowl Champion, 1x Super Bowl MVP (XXIII), 13x Pro Bowler, and 10x First-Team All-Pro recipient. There's no denying that Jerry Rice is the greatest receiver of all-time.
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.
