Dame Elizabeth Taylor is one of the most famous and well-respected actresses ever to grace our screens. Nobody can deny that she made it to the very top. Taylor was born in London; however, it wasn't until her family relocated to Los Angeles due to tension in Europe in 1939 that she became interested in acting. When she was nine years old she scored a minor role in the movie, There's One Born Every Minute. From that point on, she continued to rise.
Three years after her film debut, she landed a starring role in National Velvet, which secured her acting career. For some it's a difficult transition, but Taylor managed to switch from child to adult roles seamlessly. Her first such role was in Father of the Bride in 1950. During her lifetime Taylor won two Academy Awards.
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.
