It's the combination of words here that we have to take issue with. 'Summer' is a beautiful name. 'Rain' can work in the right circumstances. 'Summer rain' isn't something that anyone looks forward to. It ruins a perfectly good day and spoils the sunshine. Why would you name your daughter after something that only makes people sad?
That's a question that would have to be asked of singing diva Christina Aguilera and her fiancé Matthew Rutler. The two met on the set of the movie 'Burlesque' and fell in love quickly, with Summer being born in 2014. This was probably one of the happiest times in Aguilera's life, so why the somber name? Perhaps, like all artists, there's a constant sliver of sadness in her soul. Or perhaps she thought the name sounded very pretty and didn't consider the full connotations of it.
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.
