'Game of Thrones' has been the biggest television show in the world for several years, so it's reasonable to assume that one of the major stars of the show would be rolling in money. It seems that isn't the case. For Lena Headey - better known to the world as Cersei Lannister - the financial returns from playing her most famous part were as disappointing as the final season of the show.
In normal circumstances, her 'Game of Thrones' money would still have been enough to live a luxury lifestyle, but Lena Headey's circumstances coming into the show weren't normal. She'd been through a prolonged and messy divorce, with equally messy custody hearings coming after. She'd just sold her house to pay her debts when she landed her role in the show, and prior to getting it, she'd been thinking about the grim prospect of doing reality television.
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.
