One of the major issues that faces every Hollywood studio - especially those who make blockbusters - is trying to account for the various tastes and restrictions of different boards of censors around the world. What's fine in America may not be fine in China. Sometimes, what's fine in the United Kingdom isn't fine in America! Because of that, big movies often end up with many different editing cuts, all done to please a different set of censors.
At one point, India wasn't going to approve any version of the film. They considered it to be too violent and too gory and refused permission for it to be screened in their cinemas. That all changed when India's Home Minister was sent a copy of the movie to watch himself at home. Needless to say, he loved it, understood its importance, and overturned the decision to ban it.
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.
