Time seems to stand still for Marisa Tomei. She looks almost the same today as she did nearly 30 years ago, when she first hit the big time with a starring role in "My Cousin Vinny". She appeared in "Chaplin" later in the same year, and her career has only blossomed and grown since then.
Marisa is one of the hardest working actresses in Hollywood and is perhaps remarkable for being able to keep her private life almost completely out of the newspapers, managing to maintain a separation of her home and work life. Never married, and having no children, Marisa has in the past expressed frustration when asked questions about her relationships, stating that she doesn't see why women have to be married or become a parent in order to be seen as having complete lives.
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.
