Pitch black miracle drink
Gwyneth Paltrow called it ’the best juice cleanse’ and Salma Hayek incorporated it into her own juice factory. Celebrities swear this red carpet detox, activated coal, is the best kept beauty secret since well ever. So it’s about time it showed up in our fridge. I must say black juice does not look appealing so it’s a plus that it’s taste and odorless.
The first question that popped into my mind was: ‘what is activated coal?’ I did some research and here are my results: Active coal consists of charred plants that are activated by oxygen. Still abracadabra to me but what the drink does is remove toxic substances from your body so your cells are protected from toxic poisons. This prevents the body from acidifying (very handy when working out) and it also has a positive effect on the anti-aging process. In other words it keeps you young. I found an active coal juice with coconut water, aloë vera, lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. I’m off to get some. Does that mean I’ll be 25 forever?
