There's no need for Elton John to make any kind of 'Sacrifice' concerning his way of life - he's got enough money in the bank to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants. After almost fifty years in the music business, he can look back across all of his achievements and proudly say 'I'm Still Standing'.
John is currently on his retirement tour, having decided that the time is right to stop with the constant travel and settle down to enjoy the rest of his life with his partner David Furnish. The flamboyant star has had a glittering career, enjoying an extensive residency in Las Vegas, and is responsible for a string of major hit songs that span entire generations. He's also strongly linked in the world's mind with the funeral of Princess Diana, and his subsequent release of a special edition of 'Candle in the Wind' as a tribute to her memory.
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.
