Who doesn't remember the cutie who played cousin Oliver in The Brady Bunch? You know the one, straight blonde locks and an adorable pair of round-frame glasses. He was doing it decades before Harry Potter hit the scene. As a child, Robbie Rist also played Martin in Grady. Though he started out as an on-screen actor, Rist's career ended up taking him to voice work, where he has lent his vocal cords to a number of animated characters.
Rist is also a musician and provided most of the music for the film, Sharknado. He even made a little cameo in the film as Robbie the bus driver. Okay, Okay, it's not a film that was ever going to win any awards, but it was still popular with the people! He ended up being so popular that he worked on Sharknado 2 as well.
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.
