Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones practically invented every single cliché we now know about being in a rock and roll band, from the bad behavior to the lavish spending and the party lifestyle. He's a little calmer now he's in his mid-70s, but he still has all the trappings of his wealth and fame. We suspect he used to use Mustique Island, off Venezuela, for his own entertainment and amusement. Now he rents it out to families for $30,000 per week.
Jagger doesn't quite own all of Mustique Island, but he does own enough of it for the definition not to matter. Crucially, his share of the land includes Pelican Beach, which is the most attractive part of the land. The price people pay for rental includes the services of a chef, a gardener, and a butler. If you're lucky, you might even see Jagger there - he's retained a small property for his own personal use next to the beach for when he's not touring the world as a performer.
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.
