7. David Bowie

There will never be another performer anything like David Bowie. There probably won't be anyone who even comes close. Whether you knew him as Ziggy Stardust, the Thin White Duke or just plain old David Bowie, you'll have a personal favorite Bowie song and Bowie era. He shaped, defined and influenced the world of music for almost five decades, and went out in a blaze of glory.

Nobody other than his very closest friends even knew Bowie was ill, he as he worked on his final album he was suffering from terminal cancer. He took the opportunity to stage-manage his own death. Only three weeks before he passed, he released the single 'Lazarus,' of which the first line was 'Look up here man, I'm in heaven.' The video for the song concluded with Bowie shuffling backward into a closet and closing the door. This picture was taken on January 8th, 2016. He died two days later.

Did You Know...

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.
