Whether or not you recognize the name 'Don Johnson' is probably down to whether you were around to watch hit television shows during the 1980s. Johnson was one of the starts of 'Miami Vice.' which was definitely the best cop show of the decade. His career never really made it out of the 80s, and so he's a lesser-known name today. He only has himself to blame for that. He could have played John McClane in 'Die Hard,' and if he had, he'd probably still be starring in sequels today.
Johnson wasn't enamored with the script he read for the action movie, and decided that having been so closely associated with one police show, he'd rather not play a police officer in a movie. In doing so, he joined a list which includes Richard Gere and Al Pacino, who also turned 'Die Hard' down. That forced the producers to take a chance on the relatively-unknown Bruce Willis, and they never looked back.
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.
