Susan Anton - Then

Susan Anton - Then

We weren't as aware of the health problems associated with smoking in the 1970s as we are now. Adverts for cigarettes are banned on television almost everywhere, but they were commonplace during the time, and performers like Susan Anton owe their careers to them. Anton first caught the eye of the nation while advertising Muriel Cigars, using both her name and her singing voice to get the product firmly inside your head.

Merv Griffin was impressed with what he saw, and invited Anton to appear on his show several times. That added to the force behind her rising star. Appearances on 'Hollywood Squares' and 'The Mike Douglas Show' followed, as well as the movie 'Goldengirl.' Success just seemed to keep following success, and by 1979 she was famous enough to host a show of her own - 'Presenting Susan Anton.'

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.
