The Onassis family have been famous ever since Jackie Kennedy joined their ranks in the 1960s by way of marriage to Aristotle Onassis. They didn't need the fame to bring them money though; they own a huge shipping company. The number of children in the family has dwindled as the years have passed, leaving Athina Onassis, Aristotle's granddaughter, as the sole heir of the entire empire. Nobody can say for certain precisely how much she's inherited, although it's understood to be far in excess of one billion dollars.
The way at which the young Onassis arrived by her fortune wasn't a happy one. She was only ten when her mother passed away, causing her inheritance money to be held in trust until she was much older. It appears the shipping company will have to find different ownership in the future; this heiress is far more interested in show jumping.
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.
