America fell in love with the bubbly personality of Abbey Lee Miller when she was the star of 'Dance Moms,' and took her to their hearts. They then kicked her back out of her hearts when she was found guilty of deliberately trying to hide her wealth from the IRS during bankruptcy proceedings. Miller was pleading poverty to creditors, when she in fact had over $750,000 in a secret bank account. Not a smart idea.
Miller was convicted for trying to pull the wool over everybody's eyes, which was just one of many legal issues she found herself facing in a short period of time. She spent time in jail, but was transferred out again when she was diagnosed with a serious health condition. She recovered from the illness, and somehow managed to avoid being fired from her TV show. She's now slowly building her bank account back up.
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.
