Going on a luxury cruise feels like a big of a hangover from the 1950s and 1960s. They're an incredible way to see the world, and they generally offer as incredible an experience in the 21st century as they did in the 20th - but don't expect to see too many young adults on one if you decide to book a cruise yourself. They haven't engaged with them as vacation options at all.
Time is precious to millennials, and they don't have much of it to themselves. In the same time it would take them to get from one country to another on a cruise, they could visit five or more destinations by plane - and thanks to budget flights they can do it for less than half the price. Cruises will always have an audience for as long as retired people exist - but as the retirement prospects of millennials don't look great, even that may stop happening eventually.
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.
