'Titanic' was pretty much the biggest film of the 1990s. It smashed-box office records, it launched the careers of Kate Winslet and Leonardo di Caprio into the stratosphere, and gave the world 'My Heart Will Go On' by Celine Dion. Even though all of us knew how the movie was going to end, it didn't stop us enjoying the story, and crying at the end. Given its success, it's a bit of a surprise to find out that Kate Winslet doesn't like it.
For once, though, this has nothing to do with the script, or the character, or how the film was received. Winslet is just hyper-critical of her own performance. She doesn't feel like she played the part well, and believes she did a particularly bad job with her American accent. For that reason, she can't watch it. That's a shame. You were great, Kate!
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.
