When you're rich, and you have invitations to all the best parties in town, it's rude to turn them down. Allison Sarofim, who has over one and a half billion dollars in the bank, rarely does. She's happy to be described as a socialite, and even happier when people ask her about what she's wearing when she goes out - she's quite the fashion lover.
With her lifestyle and her eye for expensive and luxurious clothes, Sarofim probably spends money quite fast. Fortunately, her father is capable of making money even faster. Fayez Sarofim is an investment manager known inside the financial world as 'The Sphinx'; a nickname he's believed to take great pleasure in. When Sarofim isn't posing for the cameras she can sometimes be found performing for them - she's acted in the past, and also has her own film production company called Sixty-Six Productions.
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.
