Unlike some of the names we've listed so far, Charlize Theron can't claim that she walked into the part of Ashley Mercer in 'Reindeer Games' without an awareness of what was likely to happen. She'd read the script, and she didn't like it. She just felt like she couldn't turn down the chance to work with director John Frankenheimer, because he'd been the man in the chair for 'The Manchurian Candidate' - which happens to be Theron's all-time favorite movie.
Like Jamie Foxx, Theron allowed a respectable amount of time to pass between making the film, and publicly slating it. When she did open up about her experience, she didn't mince her words. Here's a direct quote: "That was a bad, bad, bad movie." She still doesn't regret it, though; she got to work with her favorite director, and that's all that matters to her.
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.
