I can't tell you how excited I was for Episode 7, The Force Awakens. I watched the trailers hundreds of times and got chills every single time. By now we've had several Star Wars movies since then, but before that there was a huge gap in Star Wars films. The anticipation was electric. I loved everything they did with Episode 7. It felt excited, fresh, and like an instant classic all at the same time.
This is a table read of Episode 7, which must have been insane to be a part of. I can't imagine experiencing the movie like this. I'd pay to see it read again, but I'm sure nothing can match the magic of them all reading it together for the first time. That's something special that was only possible because of the years of legacy built before it.
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.
