Halle Berry is another celebrity who's managed to get that 'Spanish villa' feel down with her choice in mansions. We feel slightly wrong giving her home a price tag of $8m, because in reality it would be worth a lot more than that if she sold it today. She bought it was back in 2004. We think you could probably put a '1' in front of that if it went back on the market today at least; the fact that a megastar has lived in it for so long brings a unique value of its own.
Like many of her contemporaries, Berry has settled down in Malibu, by the beach. The huge swelling is actually spit across two completely separated buildings, and we're not too sure what she keeps in which part. Maybe there's an underground tunnel that runs between the two? Every good James Bond girl should have an impeccable swimming pool, and she's not let us down with hers.
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.
