Confusingly, one of these images has been flipped around, which explains why the tattoos on this woman's arm have moved from left to right as you compare the pictures. That's far from the only thing that's changed though. She was in pretty good shape in her 'before' picture, but now she looks incredible. What does she credit with her trimmer, firmer look? She's eased back a little on the excesses of her rock and roll lifestyle.
As a big music fan, she liked nothing better than going out to gigs, watching her favorite bands, and drinking while doing so. She'd then eat junk food on her way home. These days she still goes to watch the shows - but she stays sober while doing so. Not only does that improve her memory of the band's set, but it also helps her steer clear of takeaway food on the way home. As a result, she looks far healthier!
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.
