Finding Nemo would never have succeeded if Ellen DeGeneres didn't voice Marlin's forgetful and slightly annoying friend, Dory. Let's be real, she was the star of the whole film and had us in stitches the entire time. Who could for get her classic tune, "just keep swimming, just keep swimming"? It's no wonder they decided to give Dory her very own sequel - Ellen was a major hit.
DeGeneres is another one with seemingly endless talents. She's a comedian, actress, producer, writer, and talk show host. In addition to this, she does very important work as an LGBT activist. Most people know her from her talk show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which has been running successfully since 2003. In fact, she's so successful that she has won a whopping thirty Emmy Awards and twenty People's Choice Awards.
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.
