Strongest evidence suggests garlic helps heart health

Image
SAN ANTONIO  - Many foods are said to have healing properties, and claims  surrounding the health benefits of garlic have swirled for centuries. It has been said to do everything from ward off the common cold to lower high blood pressure and cholesterol and lower your risk of cancer. And while some of those claims are overblown, Consumer Reports said there is some truth to the health benefits of garlic. More Consumer Headlines "The research isn’t quite there yet, but the strongest evidence to date does suggest that garlic may benefit the heart," said Julia Calderone, with Consumer Reports. Some data indicates that a daily dose of garlic can help reduce elevated levels of both cholesterol and blood pressure. "It’s not quite as good as our medications, but it does certainly have a nice effect," Calderone said. Some research also shows people who took a daily garlic supplement for a year had slower plaque buildup from coronary artery disease than p...

Why Protecting Against Insider Threats Also Protects Against Workplace Violence

Image
According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), nearly 2 million employees are victims of workplace violence each year. An even more startling statistic is that between January 2009 and July 2015, there were 133 mass shootings in the workplace. No wonder violence in the workplace has become a top security concern for all employers. While there isn't a federal law preventing workplace violence, OSHA requires a company to provide employees a workplace "free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm." This is a lot easier said than done now that technology has expanded our work environments to places outside of our physical office buildings. I don't believe it is a coincidence that we are seeing an increase in workplace violence as well as insider threats-after all, when we fail to detect and control internal threats we are not only jeopardizing our brand but also the lives of those who work...

Workouts To Keep You Mentally Agile

Image
The use-it-or-lose-it principle applies not only to the maintenance of muscular flexibility, but to the maintenance of a high level of intellectual performance as well. Just as physical exercise plays a crucial role in how your body stands up to age, how you exercise your mind while you're young greatly affects your mental and emotional shape later on. Although much of the material on aging contains long lists of the ways mental capacity declines with age, experts are now questioning these "findings". Many of the studies on which they were based, it turns out, were drastically flawed. They didn't take into consideration that hidden illness, the side-effects of medications, a lower level of education to begin with or simply the greater familiarity of the younger groups with test-taking had put the older groups at a disadvantage. Their poorer performance, which had been chalked up to inevitable intellectual declines with age, was actually due to unfair comparison. ...

When Should You Expect Results With SEO?

Image
This is really a good question. The answer is obviously... it depends. It seems to be annoying, but it's the reality. SEO, if done properly, considers the duration of your website, any SEO previously was done or not, website content, internal and external links, and many other factors. Let us discuss what your SEO efforts might look like initially during the first six months:- 1st Month  - Website audit, keyword research and setting up. Mostly technical changes are made to the website in the first month. However, if the website is poorly development, it may take more time for the research and discovery phase. 2nd Month  - On the basis of the site audit results, modification to the website is done. Other SEO activities incorporate the addition of unique and fresh content, link profile building, and complete overhauling of the site. In this month, SEO is being done, but you won't be seeing any results, since the changes made will make an impact after the completion. 3r...

Children of Isis fighters face threat of Mosul revenge attacks

Image
or the past seven months, Abu Hassan, an army medic, has treated the damaged and desperate people of the Iraqi city of  Mosul  as they arrived from the cauldron of war. Soldiers, women and children often trembled in fear in front of him, hours after escaping the bloody clashes, as Iraqi forces battled to wrest control of the city from  Islamic State  fighters. But not nine-year-old Mohammed. “He wasn’t a normal boy – he didn’t seem scared,” Hassan said shortly after treating Mohammed, one of the last to flee west Mosul earlier this month. “I chatted with him. I asked him normal questions, like: ‘What do you want to be when you grow up?’ He said: ‘I want to be a sniper.’” “I was shocked,” said Hassan. “It’s not a normal thing for a child to say. I asked him: ‘What did your dad do?’ He said he was a sniper emir – the emir of snipers. “[Later] I received a lot of information from people from Mosul saying his father was important. The special forces found the bo...
