Loni Anderson was an actress struggling to make it as the 1970s started, and it took her most of the decade to get to the top. She'd made two feature film appearances, but they were in roles so small she wasn't even credited. She's made single-episode appearances in shows like 'S.W.A.T' and 'The Bob Newhart Show,' but nothing that resembled regular work.
That all changed when she was cast as 'Jennifer Marlowe' the sexy receptionist on the TV show 'WKRP in Cincinnati' in 1978. She was an instant hit with viewers and stayed with the show for four years. More than forty years later it's still the role she's best known for, but it also became the launching bad for her later career, starting with a guest spot in 'Three's Company.' Her secretarial role had put her in front of a wide audience on a consistent basis, and directors took note.
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.
