If Davis was worried that her career had peaked by the end of the 1980s, she needn't have worried. 1991 saw her star in the classic 'Thelma and Louise' with Susan Sarandon. That got her another Oscar nomination - this time for Best Actress - but she didn't end up going home with the statue. Things came to a dead stop in the mid-1990s. Davis believes that she was written off by some producers and directors because she'd turned 40, noting that the only movie role she was offered during her 40s was 'Stuart Little.'
Her movie career never recovered from a box office turkey called 'Cutthroat Island,' but she still appears regularly on television. She had her own 'Geena Davis Show' for a series at the turn of the century, and more recently has appeared as a recurring character on the medical drama 'Grey's Anatomy.'
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.
