The first offensive lineman to make the list is veteran left tackle, Trent Williams, and deservingly so for his tenacity and durability in one of the hardest positions to remain consistent in on the field. After receiving offers from Oklahoma State, Louisiana State, and Texas A&M, Williams decided to take his talents to the University of Oklahoma in 2006. After one of the starting offensive linemen went down with a broken leg during his freshman year, Williams filled the role-playing 462 and bulldozing his way to 75 knockdowns. In his final season with the Sooners in 2009, Williams played 885 plays and earned 102 knockdowns boosting his stock on the draft charts.
In the 2010 NFL Draft, Trent Williams was selected 4th overall by the Washington Redskins where he has played his entire NFL career up until this season. Williams unsatisfied with the organization didn't report to the team's 2019 training camp and is currently in trade rumors with the Cleveland Browns. In nine seasons with the Redskins, Williams has earned seven Pro Bowl honors and started in 119 out of the 120 games he's been active on the roster. He's also averaged career earnings of approximately $10.9 million per year with an original six-year contract of $60 million in 2010 and a five-year $66 million extension signed in 2015 that makes him as paid as he is.
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.
