20. Vin Diesel (AKA Groot)

20. Vin Diesel (AKA Groot)

Whether you know him from 'The Chronicles of Riddick,' the 'XXX' series or the 'Fast and Furious' series, almost everyone in the cinema-going public has seen at least one Vin Diesel picture. He's one of Hollywood's greatest modern hard men, and his image is only partially ruined when you find out that his real name is the much-less-cool Mark Sinclair. Superhero movie fans will know him as Groot from both the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' and 'Avengers' family of films.

Vin Diesel would probably be the type of guy who wouldn't look kindly upon being turned into a woman, so we won't tell anybody about this gender swap, but we think Miss Diesel looks pretty good. She still has that 'don't mess with me' glare, but she's a very pretty woman. We wonder if she would speak with his voice?

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.
