You may remember Chloe Lukasiak - and indeed her mother Christi Zook Lukasiak - from their appearances on the reality TV show 'Dance Moms'. They didn't have the greatest of times on the show, with mom frequently butting heads with teacher Abbey Lee Miller because she felt like she was constantly giving prime opportunities to other students when her daughter should have been receiving them. The show was really all about pushy mothers, and it found plenty of them!
Lukasiak has been doing just fine since she left the show, signed to a talent agency and pursuing dancing as a full-time career. She's even said she's grateful to the show for letting everybody see how much passion she has for chosen profession. She chose a bright and impactful color scheme for her prom night, and it highlighted her features perfectly.
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.
