We're afraid we can't give you must detail on this one, but we can say for certain that if you're out on a Bahamian beach - if you can even find one, given that they all appear to be owned by celebrities - you might just see a pretty woman standing on the opposite coast on her own island nearby. Julia Roberts definitely owns an island somewhere in the Bahamas - probably quite close to her famous friends - but has never let slip on the precise locations.
To be honest, we can understand that. We probably wouldn't want photographers and paparazzi bothering us on an island we'd paid millions of dollars to own, either. As we're unable to bring you a photo of Roberts on her island, here's a picture of her looking suitably summery in front of a background that may or may not be her island. It's as close as we're ever going to get!
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.
