Rosie Jones is the first entry on our list to come from the world of golf. She's a decorated and successful golfer; never quite winning a major but coming close on a number of occasions. She made more than $8m over the course of her career, which finally came to an end in 2003 after beginning in 1982. It was the following year that she came out to the public, but her sexuality had been known to family, friends and even some other players since the 1970s.
Jones timed her announcement to help give maximum publicity to Olivia, a travel agency for lesbians who became one of her sponsors. She's in her late 50s now but still has a lot of love for golf, taking part in Legends Tours and winning the Wendy's Charity Classic as recently as 2017.
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.
