Winona Ryder

Winona Ryder

If you don't recognize her by name alone, go and stand in the corner. Winona is a megastar and has been for at least two decades now. She also might be a vampire, because she doesn't seem to be changed by the passing of the years at all. She'd already become a star via her appearance in "Beetlejuice" by the time the 1990s arrived, but her role in Bram Stoker's "Dracula" in 1992 really sealed the deal for Winona as a major player.

An extremely gifted and delicately beautiful actress, Winona is known for employing the "method" approach to parts, which led to an arrest in 2001 for shoplifting. Having appeared in every genre of film imaginable, she first dipped her toes into the science fiction waters when she appeared in Alien: Resurrection in 1997. That stood her in good stead for her currently starring role in cult hit "Stranger Things", which has introduced her to a whole new viewing generation.

Did You Know...

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.
