The demand for energy will never subside and there is an overwhelming need to tap each and every source of energy albeit the amount of energy that can be obtained from it. Biogas is a type of biofuel that is economical as well as eco-friendly and also considered a renewable form of energy. Apart from being an energy source, biogas also serves as a tool for waste management. Biogas can be used effectively in rural areas where livestock wastes, agricultural wastes and domestic wastes can be directed to a biogas plant and biogas generated can be used for cooking in the household. This will cut down on LPG bills and needs only an initial investment on the biogas plant which can be setup in each and every home. The residue expelled by the biogas plant called as slurry serves as a valuable compost to nourish agricultural lands. This type of a system is already in place in the form of gobar gas across several rural areas in Asia. Many developed countries are also trying to extract electricity out of biogas with the help of advanced technologies. They say "Little drops make a mighty ocean" and if we wish to meet our escalating need for energy successfully, then biogas is a plausible option that must be adopted rigorously.

Acidity Relief
Acidity is a common condition that gives an awkward feeling to us and interferes with our daily activities. Acidity can be due to the unusual behavior of gastric glands that secrete acids above normal. Acid reflux occurs owing to the malfunction of the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) valve which lets the stomach secretions regurgitate into the esophagus causing heartburn. This may be due to a variety of reasons like irregular eating habits including skipping meals and fluctuating food schedule, consuming overly spicy food, stress and espousing eternal demons like smoking and drinking. The symptoms of acid reflux include heartburn, sore throat, dyspepsia, chest pain, bitter flavor in the mouth, uneasiness, etc. Some of the home remedies for acidity are
- Munching a piece of clove has a soothing effect for acid reflux. Cloves alleviate acidity and also aid in digestion.
- Popping an antacid will neutralize acidity and bring relief but does not solve the root cause of acid reflux. Consuming proper diet rich in dietary fiber is very important to prevent stomach related disorders.
- Garlic and ginger should be a part of the daily regimen which play a major role in disinfecting the stomach and assisting in digestion apart from a myriad of health benefits.
- Consuming a banana after meals will safeguard you from acid reflux. Drinking milk and fruit juices is also considered effective against acidity.

Get rid of underarm odour
Underarm odor is caused by perspiration produced by the apocrine glands in the skin of our armpit. While body sweat is odorless the stale smell emanating from the armpit is a result of the bacterial action in that area. The underarms present a favorable environment for the bacteria to thrive and act on the sweat releasing foul smelling chemicals resulting in body odour. Body odour can be a hindrance in work environments and public places apart from being a personal nuisance. An interesting theory behind body odour links underarm odor with the diet we eat. Body odor is also prevalent among the obese and the diabetic.
Banishing body odor involves sticking to the basic routines of cleanliness and personal hygiene. Don't forget to take bath everyday and keep your underarms clean by rinsing with water and soap. Disinfect your armpits with baking soda or vinegar before going for any deodorants. Avoid using deodorants if possible. Shave off the hair in your underarms to prevent the profusion of bacteria in that region. Pay attention to the type of clothing you wear especially during summer. Natural fabrics like cotton are considered the best for hot climate. Drinking plenty of water and consuming fruits and green vegetables rich in chlorophyll brings down body odor. Controlling the intake of garlic, chilies, pepper and red meat will also contribute towards diminishing underarm odor.
