James Cameron has amassed a truly 'Titanic' fortune in the years since he first started making movies. Being at the helm of just one of the largest grossing films of all time is likely to mean you never have to work again. Cameron has been the man behind a whole list of them.
'Titanic' broke every box office record going when it was first released in the 90s, but when you factor in that he also brought us the first two 'Terminator' movies and 'Avatar', it's easy to see why his money stacks as high as it does. 'Titanic' was a happy accident for him in terms of wealth, though. Production on the film came in way over budget, and Cameron agreed to waive the $8m he was due to receive for directing it in return for a percentage share of the box office profits. When all was said and done, that percentage share netted him several hundred million dollars.
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.
