Jerry Seinfeld is one of the most highly paid and massively successful TV entertainers in history. You may have heard of his famous show, which was called...um...'Seinfeld'. The show ran for nine years, making big stars of both himself and Larry David, but in Seinfeld's case, he was no overnight success. He'd been working his way up the showbiz ladder for years.
In truth, Seinfeld came up the hard way through the standup comedy clubs, and he spent the best part of fifteen years on the road earning very little until he was finally noticed, and bagged TV slots on 'David Letterman', and 'The Tonight Show'. Once he had his foot in the TV door, he made up for lost time. Recently he's signed a big deal with the streaming service 'Netflix' to make both new sitcoms and special stand up shows, so he's not going anywhere just yet.
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.
