Activated Charcoal
By bringing together the gut health movement with the Dark Luxe
trend, adding activated charcoal to your meals has become popular
as a way to detox, help digestion, reduce cholesterol and even claims
to have anti-ageing properties. Whilst there are many health benefits
to be had, another reason people are trying out this new ingredient is
to bring the ‘wow factor’ to meals by adding pitch-black colour to food
and drink.
From ice-creams to hamburger buns and everything in-between, the
internet has been swamped with Instagram-worthy images of everyday
foods which have been given the charcoal black treatment.
Activated charcoal is typically made from burning coconut shells or
bamboo, and has become a popular ingredient to add to foods, with
people experimenting and posting their results on social media. It has
attracted a lot of press attention and has become the next big trend for
fashion followers.
