The amount of protein in an egg varies by the size of the egg. One small egg contains 4.8 grams of protein. There are 5.5 grams in a medium egg; 6.3 grams in a large; and a jumbo egg contains 7.9 grams.Because eggs are relatively inexpensive, they are an affordable source of protein in the diet.n egg is made up of two distinct parts: the white and the yolk. Both contain protein, but more than 50 percent of the protein is located in the white. One large egg white contains 3.6 grams of high quality protein and no fat.
There are dyes and chemicals in fabric and other components of clothing and shoes that can leach into the soil, contaminating both surface and groundwater. This is not to mention the amount of space. Eleven million tons of textiles clogs up approximately 126 million cubic yards of landfill space â and thatâs just one yearâs worth of discards. Most of this material is completely reusable or recyclable, but only if it is proactively collected.
Within the next week, adidas will unleash its new UltraBOOST Uncaged Parley running shoes, the first mass-produced footwear created using recycled plastic recovered from the ocean. The shoe features a Primeknit upper made from a mix of Ocean Plastic, a material created from plastic waste retrieved by Parley coastal interception and clean-up operations in the Maldives (95 percent) and recycled polyester (5 percent). Each pair reuses the equivalent of 11 plastic bottles. The shoe laces, heel cap base material, heel webbing, heel lining and the sockliner cover are also made with recycled materials. Its design is inspired by ocean waves, to reflect the shoeâs unique story and adidas and Parleyâs commitment to end the cycle of pollution in the oceans. UltraBoost Uncaged Parley shoes ($200) will be available for purchase at adidas.com and select adidas retail shops, but only 7,000 pairs have been produced. â 1 Nobody can save the oceans alone. Each of us can play a role in the solution.
