The Asian community has used different teas and herbal remedies since before the Great wall of China (over 3000 years ago) and green tea has stood out as one of its hallmark and most helpful constituents. Green tea has been used to treat everything from heart attacks, stroke to infections like sepsis (blood infection) and numerous other conditions and maladies.


Many studies have been undertaken to research and extract the helpful and beneficial compounds in Green tea that exhibit these medicinal qualities. Recent scientific studies listed in Chemical & Engineering News (produced by the American Chemical Society) show numerous benefits from the different compounds contained in green tea leaves (polyphenols like EGCG, a powerful antioxidant that inhibits the rapid growth of cancer cells without harming healthy cells).


Studies done at Harvard and Cornell Universities on these polyphenols have shown a marked decline in carcinogen activity (up to 60% blocking reduction in oxidation capabilities) and even a biocide or antiseptic quality (hence the current research on green tea polyphenols and tooth and gum disease). Green tea has shown and evidenced antibacterial properties and more research in this area is needed.


Green tea polyphenols inhibit and retard cancer growth in every study and form of cancer from liver cancer to uterine and breast cancer. It is important to note, that although no cancer in these studies was completely cured DeSean Jackson Womens Jersey , duration of survival and quality of life were increased in every circumstance. EGCG, due to its abilities to retard cancer with no known side effects is currently being researched to see if higher concentrations and or more powerful synthetic derivatives could be used as a replacement for the current highly toxic chemotherapy.


Study after study shows a vast reduction in onset and risk of various cancers and disease. Other green tea findings included a study of smokers at the Arizona Cancer Center in Tucson showing that four cups of decaffeinated green tea every day for four months provided some protection against potentially carcinogenic damage to DNA, as measured by the amount of an enzyme in the urine. Many studies have linked green tea to lower risk for breast, pancreatic Dallas Goedert Womens Jersey , colon, esophageal, and lung cancers. University of Purdue researchers recently concluded that a compound in green tea inhibits the growth of cancer cells. There is also research indicating that drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol. The polyphenols inhibit the absorption of cholesterol in the digestive tract Carson Wentz Womens Jersey , which actually helps lower the amount of LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream.


Basically, to sum this up, green tea has been proven to reduce the risk of cancer and retard the growth of cancer cells in every case and for this reason alone should be incorporated into every diet. Just 4 cups of green tea per day has been found to slow and retard breast cancer in women (Japanese scientists at the Saitama Cancer Research Institute). 4 cups of green tea daily gives the optimal amount of polyphenols for the best results.


Overview : This webinar provides an update on the status and evolution of HR audits.


The HR auditing process is or should be an independent, objective Brian Dawkins Womens Jersey , and systematic evaluation that provides assurance that:
1) compliance and governance requirements are being met
2) business and talent management objectives are being achieved
3) human resource management risks are fully identified, assessed, and managed; and
4) the organization’s human capital adds value. Under this definition, HR audits are more than an assessment that solely collects and presents evidence of compliance. HR audits are increasingly expected to look behind and beyond the organization’s assertions of sound and proper HR management practices and to assess the assumptions being made Randall Cunningham Womens Jersey , benchmark the organization’s processes and practices, and provide the necessary consultative services that help the organization achieve its business goals and objectives.

This webinar also discusses the design of the HR audit. While a powerful management tool, HR audits are a doubled-edge sword. First, the act of observing and assessing organizational and individual performance Clayton Thorson Jersey , changes the outcome. Who gets observed and measured, get motivate. Individuals and organizations act respond to the spotlight. In designing the HR audit attention should be give to the message you will be sending about what the organization considers important and what outcomes it expects. An improperly designed and implemented HR audit can choreograph t
