    ASU engineers have created an edible supercapacitor with range of health-application possibilities,that can wipe out E. coli or power a camera from inside the body.
    Foods like activated charcoal, gold leaf, Gatorade, seaweed, egg white, cheese, gelatin and barbecue sauce can store and conduct electricity. Sandwich them together, and you have a supercapacitor — a high-capacity electrical component that can store electrical energy temporarily.
