Who knew that Vin Diesel was an accomplished voice actor? Okay, maybe we're going a bit too far there, but hey, he successfully starred in The Iron Giant as the iron giant, which is pretty cool. Though he only says a few words throughout the whole film, it's still a nice little piece of work for Diesel's portfolio. Most people know Vin Diesel from his high-profile appearances on screen, rather than his voice work.
Probably his best-known work is as Dominic Toretto in the Fast and the Furious film series. We're sure they're up to about number seventeen by now? Just kidding, there have actually only been eight Fast and the Furious films released, which is still quite a lot! Diesel is also known for his leading roles in The Pacifier and Find Me Guilty.
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.
