Joyce Meyer is a well known 'Charismatic Christian' and the president of Joyce Meyer Ministries. Her ministry is located in St. Louis, Missouri, the city where she was born. The Charismatic Christian movement began in the '60s and is considered quite similar to Pentecostalism. Meyer is an engaging speaker who has become very wealthy from her career as a preacher.
Meyer's father went to fight in World War II. When he returned, Meyer says he began sexually abusing her, which is something she has been open about with the public. She was always religious and prayed regularly, however, she said that one morning she heard God call her name. She followed the calling and developed the ministry and massive following she has today. Since then, she has become one of the most influential evangelicals in the USA.
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.
