If she could turn back time, do you think she might have gone for home that wasn't right next to a busy freeway? We bet she doesn't get disturbed all that much, though. The good strategic use of some palm trees keeps Cher's $45m Malibu mansion hidden from the road, and most people drive past without a clue how close they are to one of the world's most famous singers.
The mansion is fashioned after the Italian Renaissance style, and covers 14,000 square feet, boasting an infinity pool among its many features. If the infinity pool wasn't enough water for you, you could always walk to the edge of the hill the property is built on and look out over the Pacific Ocean. We wonder whether she's ever accidentally hit a tennis ball over that wall and into the traffic?
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.
