People all my life have told me that I need to see 'The Nutcracker.' It's not like it's a hard thing to find. They put performances on of it every year, and every year I watch just a tiny bit to see if it will catch my interested. Guess what? It never does. I think a big factor in that is the fact that we don't use nutcrackers anymore. No one even know what they are past a decoration. When is the last time you used a nutcracker to crack a nut?
This version of 'The Nutcracker' stars Elle Fanning and John Turturro, two actors who I enjoy watching on the screen. It's also in 3D, which is evident by the name. You know what the demographics who love 'The Nutcracker' also love? 3D entertainment... not really.
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.
