You're never ready for a sentence like this: "Summer Rae is an American football player." So many questions immediately swirl in my head. I'm not even going into the argument of whether women should be able to play football or not. I'm just focusing on the fact that they currently don't. It is true though. Summer Rae is a professional football player, just not for the NFL. There's a little organization called the LFL (Lingerie Football League). Yes, a lingerie football league. We've peaked as a society.
Summer Rae was a quarterback in the LFL, which is pretty awesome, and she was also an original member of the Total Divas cast. I love Total Divas but only caught up with it in the last few years. Now I want to go back and watch the Summer Rae episodes. It's not like I have any writing to do...
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.
