In his prime, 'Playboy' Buddy Rose was arguably the most hardworking wrestler of his era. In the early 1980s, Rose would often work 90s day straight performing for fans across the country. When he was able to get a day off from the WWF, he would fly to the west coast where he would perform in smaller market promotion companies for local fans. Buddy Rose had many worthy rivals including Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka, then-WWF Champion Bob Buckland, and more.
Playboy Buddy Rose even participated in the first-ever Wrestlemania as 'The Executioner' where he took on Tito Santana. After taking a break from wrestling and returning in the early '90s, he had gained a considerable amount of weight which he used to play on throughout his monologues. Rose was a comical heel that gained the respect of fans but unfortunately, lost his life at the age of 56 due to natural causes involving his weight in 2009. Rest well, Playboy, you're legacy lives on.
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.
