Being the only child of a multi-billionaire means you're likely to get a little spoiled with gifts and attention. That goes some way to explaining why Roshi Nadar Malhotra is worth something like fifteen billion dollars. Her father Shiv Nadar founded HCL Technology, which has gone on to be a giant in the global tech scene. Daddy makes her work for her money though.
Malhotra has her own position on the board of HCL Technology as a Director, but has an even grander rank at their sister company the HCL Corporation, where she's Executive Director and CEO. Somehow, she also finds the time to serve as a trustee of her father's Shiv Nadar Trust, which takes on charitable projects. Described as being fiercely ambitious and highly intelligent, Malhotra will likely own all of the businesses one day.
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.
