Mantis' story is a bit different in the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' movie than it is in the comics, but isn't that true for pretty much all of the superheroes? Just ask the X-Men. Who even knows what comic book those movies think they are following at this point. In the film, she plays Ego's sidekick/nap helper. She can use empathic powers to make him fall asleep. I guess being an all powerful god isn't great for your sleep.
I'd love to have that power. I'd constantly be touching people to put them in a good mood. You know what that means? Dance party wherever I go. Happy people are always down to dance. Once I got bored of doing that I'd probably make people depressed just for laughs. I know, if I was in a Marvel movie I'd be a villain. No shocker there.
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.
