Here we have another cast member of The Partridge Family. Brian Forster played Chris Partridge from 1971 to 1974 after replacing the original actor for that character, Jeremy Gelbwaks. In the show, Chris Partridge was the drummer of the family band. We're not sure why none of the cast members of this show ended up continuing acting careers!
Forster still remains passionate about acting and regularly takes part in his community theater events, but he gave up on it as a career. That doesn't mean he hasn't been successful, though. He actually ended up becoming a race car driver in Northern California. This was definitely a break away from his family's interest in the arts. His father, stepfather, and step grandfather are all actors. And he is also a descendent of Charles Dickens. Who would have thought?
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.
