'The Hangover' is a movie about dealing with the consequences of a heavy night out. That might have been a bit too 'on the nose' for Lindsay Lohan, whose personal issues are well documented. Happily, she's in a better place now, but she still probably wishes that she hadn't said no to 'The Hangover' when she was offered the part of Jade. Heather Graham decided to play the stripper with a heart of gold, and got to reprise the role in the third 'Hangover' movie.'
If Lohan was looking at the script and thinking it was too close to her real-life situation, she didn't tell anybody. Instead, she sent it back and told her agent that she didn't feel it had any potential of success. She couldn't have been more wrong - it brought in nearly five hundred million dollars at the box office. In fairness to Lohan, she wasn't exactly making great decisions at the time.
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.
