'Shameless' is a great example of exceptional television that has stayed exceptional for eight seasons. How many shows can you say have done that while keeping things fresh and exciting? It enters it's ninth season this fall, which is a lot of seasons to dig into. If you haven't seen the previous season I'd highly suggest putting your sweatpants on and binge watching it. That might take you quite a while at one hour per episode, but it's well worth it.
It's not that you won't be able to enjoy the show if you start at season 9, but there's so much history to the show at this point that you'd be doing yourself a disservice to just jump right in. This will be Emmy Rossum's last season on the show which might not bode well for the future of the series.
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.
