Eminem is the entertainment industry's ghost. The multi-platinum recording artist is rarely ever seen in public, let alone any type of sporting events yet, he finds time to be present at Detroit Lion home games every football season. Unfortunately, the Lions are one of those organizations that have the ability to acquire superstar talent but can never make it over the cusp to find themselves in the playoff picture or deep in the postseason.
With Eminem being Detroit's hometown hero, he definitely hasn't abandoned the Lions despite their turbulent history. Matter of fact, Eminem did the team's honor of performing the Lions' season-opener coin toss this past September. Of course, Marshall Mathers was met with a warm reception by those in attendance and was highly-favored by the Lions players on the sideline as Em stayed to watch the game. Unfortunately, the New York Jets thrashed the Lions 48-17 to begin the season.
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.
