There have been rumors around the celebrity world for years that Pharrell Williams is actually a vampire. The NERD front man, superstar producer and constant collaborator doesn't seem to have aged in all the years he's been in the spotlight. Looking at his $10.9m home, it seems that his taste is as timeless as the man himself.
The living room is so large that is covers three floors and needs its own staircase to navigate. If you're looking for the swimming pool you'll find it on the rooftop terrace, but don't worry if it's raining. You can always entertain yourself in the home theater with its comfortable leather seats. Confusingly, the property is listed as having "six and a half bathrooms". What does half a bathroom look like, and what happened to the rest 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.
