If you've decided you're going to lose weight, always keep the clothes that you had when you were at your worst - they make for excellent visual aids afterward! This woman is standing in almost the same pose, the same room, and the same clothes in both of these pictures - but the difference between the two is absolutely incredible.
All that's stayed the same about her appearance is her hair - and we don't blame her for keeping that; it's some seriously great hair! Thanks to her incredible diet and workout effort though, that pink top no longer even comes close to fitting her. With her new and improved body shape, you could probably fit two of her into it. The weight loss has made so much difference to her face too - it's no wonder that she's giving us such a warm smile in the 'after' image.
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.
