Remember what we said about there always being money where there's oil? Here's another pair of twins who prove that rule. Kathrine and Cecilie Fredriksen are the daughters of John Fredriksen, known to the business world as 'Big Wolf,' and owner of the largest fleet of oil tankers in the entire world. The scale of his company's operations means that giving his daughters $11bn between them was as easy as giving them ten bucks.
The Fredriksen girls could be spending their days on private beaches like the Ecclestones, but instead, they've enthusiastically positioned themselves within their father's company, poised to take over. Kathrine went to London to graduate through the European Business School to make sure she had the right skills, whereas Cecilie has been working at her father's right hand for years, learning the ropes hands-on. The elder Fredriksen has recently spoken of retirement, so it may soon be the girls' time to shine.
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.
