Earlier on we talked about Ellie Darcey-Alden appearing as the young version of Harry Potter's mother in the movies. Here's Geraldine Somerville, who played her as an adult. Her death at Voldemort's hands is arguably the pivotal moment in Harry's whole destiny, leading to his final avenging of the act at the climax of the series. She mostly appears in flashbacks, although as Harry heads to his final battle she appears to him directly as a vision in the forest.
Somerville is generally known for playing tougher roles, most notably in the dark British police drama "Cracker" and has worked steadily throughout her career without ever ascending to superstardom. She took particular delight in her Harry Potter role and says that all of her own real-life children have grown up to be huge fans of the stories.
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.
