The way Alyssa Milano's career got started is a little creepy. When she was only seven years old, her babysitter took her to audition for a national touring production of 'Annie' without asking for permission from her parents or telling them where she'd gone. Milano got the part, and her mother must have come around to the idea because she spent the next 18 months touring the USA with her daughter.
With that start, Milano quickly became a child star of the 80s. She appeared in her first film in 1984 at the age of 12; a coming-of-age drama called 'Old Enough.' In the same year, she recorded her part as Arnold Schwarzenegger's daughter in 'Commando,' although she didn't know too much about the film because of her age! She saw out the decade starring in TV show 'Who's the Boss?', which ran for eight years and 196 episodes.
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.
