Part IV: How to Get Ripped. Forever.
Youll see images of actors who get in amazing shape for a movie. Much is made of their transformation. Everyone wants to know what they did and how they achieved such impressive results. And then you hear about their training and the hours upon hours of hard work they put in to achieve these results. This is when people lose interest.

The problem with these transformations that actors go through, is that as soon as the movie is finished, they find themselves right back into their usual lifestyle.

Yes, it sounds like a bad episode of “Fear Factor,” but apparently it is true. You may be wondering how bugs could end up in a nice frothy drink like a Frappuccino, but it actually comes from the coloring. The skins and bodies of Peru’s cochineal beetles are crushed to make the food coloring. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of cochineal extract.
