Jane Seymour is just a great, classic Hollywood name. It's simple, but it just oozes class and respectability, and you can imagine it on a poster with Marilyn Monroe and Jack Lemmon in the 1940s just as easily as you can picture it with Jude Law or Leonardo di Caprio today. Great names are timeless, and Seymour's certainly is. But, unfortunately, it isn't real.
You can completely understand why she chose to change her name when she went into acting when you find out what she's really called, though; it's Joyce Penelope Wilhelmina Frankenberg. "Joyce Penelope" had potential as a star name, but we like what she eventually came out with better. Anyway, to us, she'll always be 'Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman"; even if she had first captured the world's eye as a Bond Girl many years before that!
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.
