5. Home Improvement Stores

The further down this list we go, the more you'll notice that some of the items on it are connected. If Millennial people aren't buying starter homes, and are generally leaving it later in life to buy houses at all, that's obviously going to impact sales at home improvement stores. People can't pay for home improvements if they don't own a home to improve!

At the moment, the disinterest in home improvements among young people is being balanced out by older generations being more interested in the practice than ever before. The over 50s are spending big money on improving their existing assets, but if the young don't engage with the same practice soon, though, their existing customer base is likely to start disappearing within the next decade. They'll probably be hoping that someone has found a way to fix the housing market by then.

Did You Know...

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.
