If you don't recognize Linda by name alone, well give you a clue. "Men in Black". And if you like your films a little more cult-friendly, try "Dogma" instead. Both movies saw Linda Fiorentino in the female lead, but they were the peak of a career that extended a few years longer in both directions. Linda first became known as Carla in "Vision-Quest", but it took her ten years to find another role that hit the same heights.
She was a star of the 90s because that's when we knew her best; her time at the top was short but burned brightly, and since 2000 she has only made three more credited appearances as an actor. On the rare occasions we see her, her appearance is always noteworthy - she has changed dramatically during this time.
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.
