If we're allowed to pick holes in "Lord of the Rings", "The Hobbit" and "Indiana Jones", then we can't let the "Harry Potter" series get away with anything. We're sorry. In our defense, they only have themselves to blame. Harry is forever being told, all the way through all the films, that he has his mother's eyes. They're particularly memorable eyes, too, being a vivid shade of green. So this mistake makes no sense.
When we eventually see Harry's mother Lilly, in flashback scenes in the final film, guess what's wrong? The actor playing the part doesn't have green eyes, but brown. Lots of girls have green eyes. That requirement should have been front and center on the list of what was needed at the casting stage. How did they manage to get this so wrong? And why did nobody realize?
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.
