Fans of Leonardo di Caprio may have noted that we're a long way into this list, and there's been no sign of their favorite leading man. Fear not, he's right here, but you'll have to wait until July 26th to see him. This is a Tarantino movie starring di Caprio, Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie, Al Pacino, Dakota Fanning, Damien Lewis and Lena Dunham. In short, it promises to be worth the wait.
The subject matter isn't pulling any punches either; the plot involves Charles Manson, the 'Manson family' and his spate of murders. Somehow, Steve McQueen (played by Lewis) gets involved as well. Given Tarantino's past treatment of real-life topics, we expect some similarities to 2009's 'Inglourious Basterds', which wouldn't be a bad thing. More than anything else, we expect a compelling, exciting and brilliant movie.
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.
