Keanu Reeves is one of those people that has such a unique aesthetic it's hard to tell what exactly his ethnic background is made up out of. Apparently, his mother is English and his father is of Chinese, Irish, Portuguese, Native Hawaiian, and English descent. Many probably wouldn't have thought that the guy from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure would become one of the world's biggest movie stars but he did and ended up starring in action films like Speed, the revolutionary Matrix trilogy, Constantine, and the John Wick series.
So, how could someone with such a complex background possibly look like anyone else on this planet? We're not sure but Keanu Reeves has a doppelganger in French painter and illustrator, Louis-Maurice Boutet de Monvel who was known for his realistic portraits and children's books illustrations. If someone as peculiar looking as Keanu Reeves has a look-a-like then there's no reason in the world to doubt that you too have one as well.
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.
