Brigitte Bardot was an Italian movie star who was best known for being blonde. That is why this picture of her as a brunette might be a little shocking, but in fact, she was born brunette. It was in 1956 that she decided to go blonde. Once she went blonde, she didn't go back (rarely at least). The Italians really knew how to crank out movies because Brigitte Bardot starred in 40 of them, including The Truth, And God Created Woman, and Naughty Girl, which was a musical. Italian movies were very interesting because a majority of them would record all the dialogue after the scenes were shot, and then layer them over.
She retired from acting in 1973 to become an animal activist. It is always great to hear about an actor retiring from acting and deciding to put their time and energy into something positive.
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.
