Before we were blessed with Dwayne The Rock Johnson in a 'Jumanji' movie, we had something even better: a Robin Williams 'Jumanji.' Both are equally amazing, though the 2018 'Jumanji' is a game changer (see what I did there? They literally changed the game from a board game to a video game). ANYWAY, the first 'Jumanji' has a star who was just coming on the rise: Kirsten Dunst.
She plays the sassy sister who discovers the board game along with her brother. It's a really strong performance coming from such a young actress, which is especially impressive considering she was acting opposite the Genie himself. Rewind a few years back and you'll find Kirsten in another surprising role with two more Hollywood heavy hitters, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise in 'Interview with the Vampire.'
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.
