As one of the most successful and famous directors and producers of all time, you imagine Steven Spielberg locked away in the grand study of an enormous Gothic mansion, laboring away over his next box office sensation. Instead, he's right here in this charming and picturesque estate. What's in that quirky little round extension that comes off the side of the main residence? We need to know!
We just adore the simplicity and elegance of his home. It's tucked away in Quelle Farm, East Hampton, and it's quite a recent acquisition for him, having been purchased a mere seven years ago. This is presumably where he intends to enjoy his retirement. The property came with quite a large amount of land so Spielberg, ever the generous soul, donated a full seven acres of it to a local land trust to protect it from developers.
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.
