When you watch any work of recorded fiction on screen, whether it's TV or movie, it's extremely unlikely that you're seeing the first take of any individual scene. Scenes are shot and re-shot, with different focus and different emphasis, over a period of many hours. Sometimes, the same scene can be recorded over and over again for days. In the case of 'Saving Private Ryan' and the famous Omaha Beach scene, that period ran into weeks.
Every day, they filmed the scenes again, moving a little closer to the beach each time. Spielberg and the producers wanted the cast to get the real feeling of frustration, slow progress and physical exhaustion that came with this kind of warfare. When all was said and done, the actors involved in that scene had been at the beach every day for four weeks.
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.
