15. Ndamukong Suh (DT) - $148 Million

Throughout his career, Ndamukong Suh has earned a reputation as a problematic professional athlete. However, over the past couple of years, Suh has revamped his image and become one of the premier athletes in the NFL today. Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Suh played his collegiate ball at the University of Nebraska from 2005 to 2009. In five seasons with the Cornhuskers, Suh racked up a total of 215 tackles, 24 sacks, four interceptions, and two touchdowns. In his final seasons, Suh was honored with the Lombardi Award for best lineman/linebacker in the country, Associated Press Player of the Year, and named a Heisman Trophy finalist.

In the 2010 NFL Draft, Ndamukong Suh was drafted 2nd overall by the Detroit Lions where he became an instant force winning Defensive Rookie of the Year. Suh played the first five seasons of his NFL career with the Lions where he racked up an approximate total of $64.5 million. His next contract with the Miami Dolphins made him one of the richest defensive players in NFL history signing with the Florida-based team $114.3 million for six seasons. Unfortunately, Suh was cut from the team three seasons into the contract and has become a journeyman around the league ever since. This also has allowed him to rake in the big bucks signing a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Rams for $14 million last season and a one-year, $9.2 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Thus far, Ndamukong Suh has almost touched the $150 million mark. When it's all said and done, Suh will be a much richer man than he already is.

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.
