Paul Giamatti is probably one of the most aesthetically average looking people to have an extremely successful career in the film industry. Giamatti first big break came in the form of a character by the name of 'Pig Vomit' in the 1997 film, Private Parts, which led him to roles in movies like Saving Private Ryan, the 2001 Planet of the Apes reboot, The Illusionist, the critically acclaimed film The Truman Show, The Hangover II, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Straight Outta Compton, and Cinderella Man which earned him an Oscar nominee for Best Supporting Actor.
Not only is Giamatti one hell of an actor, he also favors the most well-known playwright of all-time, William Shakespeare. And if you've suffered the experience of reading some mediocre literature through grade school, it was a relief when the subject of Shakespeare became a part of the curriculum. From Romeo & Juliet to Othello to Hamlet, the guy was an amazing writer and with his horseshoe balding pattern looks a lot like Paul Giamatti.
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.
