Leonardo DiCaprio is literally on top of the world, there isn't a woman in the world that wouldn't take a shot at him and there isn't a guy alive who wouldn't want to be a part of his inner circle. The Wolf of Wall Street star has found his way to an Oscar for his amazing performance in The Revenant for Best Actor after starring critically acclaimed films like Titanic, Shutter Island, Inception, Gangs of New York and more. His performance for playing an autistic child with a unique family dynamic in What's Eating Gilbert Grape is what put him on the map and led him to a road of superstardom.
What many don't know is that Dicaprio has a doppelganger in the form of a woman known as Judy Zipper. Nobody really knows too much about Zipper other than the fact that she looks like a 1960s version of the megastar actor but at least she's gained some type of notoriety after death. Shout out Judy and the Zipper family!
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.
