Samuel L. Jackson has been in a lot of films. We mean seriously loads. Sometimes, he turns up so often that you suspect he just says 'yes' to everything without bothering to read the script. There might be something to that theory, because he cited his own ignorance as to the reason he wouldn't do any kissing scenes in the movie 'Cell,' which is based on a Stephen King novel.
Despite agreeing to be in the film (and be paid for doing a professional job), Jackson later admitted that he didn't bother to read the novel or even the script. As such, the news that his character was gay came as a complete surprise to him when he turned up on set. He didn't pull out, but he did refuse to kiss any other men - even though doing so was fairly vital to his character. It might have been easier for the production just to let him go and find someone else; 'Cell' didn't turn out great in the end.
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.
