'Grey's Anatomy' is a show that's been in my life longer than my adult teeth, which I'm now starting to lose, so it may even outlast them too. Long story short, it's been on a long time. It's like there are three guarantees in life: taxes, death, and 'Grey's Anatomy.' Naturally, Chandra Wilson has also been a part of our lives for a very long time. Before she became a household name in our television sets every week, she had a lot of roles that you may have completely missed.
In the classic, 'Philadelphia,' Chandra plays a makeup artist who helps Tom Hanks cover up his AIDS lesions. I wonder who makes the best makeup for that. Maybe it's Maybelline? She really moved up the job ladder through her career. From makeup artist to doctor. Way to go, Chandra.
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.
