An apple a day really does help keep the doctor away! High in fiber and anti-inflammatory properties, apples help reduce cholesterol, prevent constipation, protect against heart disease and decrease your risk of cancer. Renal-friendly apples can be eaten raw or cooked. Or get their health benefits by drinking apple juice or cider
Egg whites
~~~~~~~
Did you know that egg whites are pure protein?
They provide the highest quality protein there is, along with all of the essential amino acids. If you're on the kidney diet, it's good to note that egg whites have less phosphorus than other protein sources, such as egg yolks or meats. .

Solar paint
Solar Paint is the next thing that can be used as a source of saving our environment
The solar paint is a rage in market these days. Usually paint contains a toxic material which is used in large quantity in commercial paints which affects the health and surrounding of a particular house. The best option to get rid of these toxic paints is the new technology paint named the solar paint. This paint is completely made out of recycled products and is widely used these days not only to paint but also to harness the solar energy and convert it into electrical energy. This paint is one of the best alternative and completely eco friendly components.
Solar Powered Stadium
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Taiwan's dragon-shaped arena is the perfect example of the scalability of solar power. Designed by Toyo Ito, this 50,000 seat area generates 100% of its electricity from photovoltaic technology through its 8,844 solar panels that illuminate the track and field with 3,300 lux
This is so smart: Proposed bus stop would gather solar energy, convert it to electricity and then transfer to electric buses.
so what are your views about this idea???

Wireless solar chargers keep e-buses rolling
Proposed bus stop would gather solar energy, convert it to electricity and then transfer this to electric buses, allowing them to always be charged.
Although individual consumers may be reluctant to trade in their gas guzzlers for electric vehicles, public transit departments have already been experimenting with these low-emission alternatives. But the challenges of electric transportation are the same for municipalities: mainly, how do you keep the vehicles fully charged without constant interruptions to the travel schedule?
The ATC Solar Curve Bus Stop concept by Studio Mango, featured recently on Design Buzz, could be an answer to this conundrum. Designed for integration with existing bus stops in the Dutch city of Noord-Brabant, the Solar Curve would place inductive charging technology into bus stops that would allow electric buses to recharge their batteries every time they stop to pick up passengers.
Inductive charging uses an electromagnetic field to transfer energy between two objects. Energy is sent through inductive coupling to an electrical device, which then can use that energy to charge its batteries.
Approximately 15.5 meters of solar panels installed on top of the structure’s roof would collect and convert sunlight into electricity throughout the day. The roof would be curved in such a way that would both protect waiting passengers from the elements and allow the energy to be transferred to the bus wirelessly anytime the vehicle pulls up underneath the overhang.
Components for inductive charging are hidden and protected against damage or dirt in the Solar Curve’s tilting roof construction. Green LED lights on the bus stop/charging station that can be read very easily by the bus driver as well as the waiting public would indicate when the bus is ready to hit the streets again.

Carambola:
Carambola, also known as starfruit, is the fruit of Averrhoa carambola, a species of tree native to the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. The fruit is a popular food throughout Southeast Asia, the South Pacific and parts of East Asia. The tree is also cultivated throughout non-indigenous tropical areas, such as in Costa Rica, Peru, Colombia, Jamaica, Trinidad, Ecuador, Guyana, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Haiti and Brazil, and, in the United States, in south Florida and Hawaii.
The fruit has ridges running down its sides (usually five); in cross-section it resembles a star, hence its name. The number of ridges can vary from three to six.
Carambola is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C and low in sugar, sodium, and acid. It is also a potent source of both primary and secondary polyphenolic antioxidants. A. carambola has both antioxidant and antimicrobial activities: Scavenging of NO by the fruit extract is dependent on concentration and stage of ripening. Extracts showed antimicrobial activity against E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
