Most actors who work in television would rather be making movies, but there are exceptions to that rule. One of them is Tom Selleck. He'll always be most famous for playing 'Magnum P.I.,' but he could have been Indiana Jones instead. What's more, he had an informed choice between the two, and chose to stay on the small screen!
Selleck received offers to appear in 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' and 'Magnum P.I.' at the same time, and the detective show won. It's possible that Selleck didn't see the potential for the first 'Indiana Jones' movie to expand into a multimillion-dollar franchise, and so felt like Magnum offered him better long-term security. You have to think that he's since looked back on that choice and questioned whether it was the right call. Really, though - Indiana Jones with a mustache? We're not sure it would have worked!
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.
