"The most startling motion picture achievement in the history of movie-making." I'm sure that was possible in the first 30 years of film, but then it gets harder and harder to startle people. To be fair, one of the first movies ever was just of a train coming towards the camera. That startled the hell out of people. They thought it was a real train and ran out of the theater. Not every movie can or should do that. I wish more movies used that tagline though, until it was about as meaningless as all the other poster saying we get: exhilarating, a knockout performance, or spell binding.
I'm not sure what this one is about. The title alone seems like it could be a movie about finding oneself outside of Africa, however the other tagline, "consumed by savagery, conceived by blood," kind of throws that out of whack.
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.
