We covered the character of Helena Ravenclaw earlier on, and the relevance of the Grey Lady to Harry Potter's ultimate fate. What we didn't mention was that there have actually been two actors cast in the role. Unfortunately for Nina Young, only one of them got a speaking part, and it wasn't her.
Playing the comparatively minor role of the Grey Lady in the earlier films, Young's main job was to look pretty and mysterious, which she managed effortlessly. She's been working on television and in film for the best part of thirty years, although almost always in minor roles. Her big screen credits include "Johnny English" and James Bond movie "Tomorrow Never Dies", but the majority of her credits are for non-recurring roles on a variety of British TV shows. Other than the fact that she's Australian, very little is publicly known about her life away from her work.
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.
