The Health Benefits of a Green Tea Diet

There are multifaceted factors that are highly responsible for the growing need to lose weight. Perhaps it is due to the increasing stress brought about by modern lifestyle, kinds of foods and advanced technologies which are contributory to the increasing rate of obesity that gave rise to the numerous types of diet regimens.

One potential agent that is believed to promote weight loss is green tea. There was an astounding acceptance of the dieting public that a green tea diet can be an effective means of losing weight.

With green tea diet as a potential weight loss agent, one can trace such claims from the numerous health benefits that are obtained from green tea. Many find the ultimate solution for losing excess weight is a green tea diet owing to epigallocatechin gallate commonly called as EGCG which is a chemical component extracted from green tea.

To understand the weight loss essentials from a green tea diet an understanding about the chemical components of green tea can provide an overview for a better comprehension of the health benefits from a green tea diet.

The EGCG found from green tea is a polyphenol that can accelerate metabolism of a human 4 times more than the natural metabolism process of the body. It is due to increasing the heat production through a process called thermogenesis that influences the enzymatic metabolism of the body.

It goes along that when the body metabolizes faster the rate of burning fats and calories are also accelerated. Hence, a person with a green tea diet can promote a faster metabolic rate of the body that promotes an enhanced weight loss.

The green tea diet is not only associated with loss weight effects although further studies are needed to prove this claim but there are other scientific studies that provide evidence that other health benefits can be obtained from a green tea diet.

The polyphenol extracted from the green tea leaves are also capable of normalizing the blood pressure and reduces the risk of cancer. It is a chemical that is high in its antioxidant level that promotes a healthy bodily system.

The chemical components that are responsible for the effectiveness of a green tea diet are also capable of regulating the blood sugar level of the body thereby inhibits the sudden increase of insulin and fat conversion in diabetic individuals after food intake.

A green tea diet also has an effect to a person's appetite which naturally decreases the pang of hunger which encourages a good weight loss process in general. Although no scientific studies can actually prove that green tea diet can guarantee weight loss, it does have the chemicals that prove to be effective in protecting the body from harmful illnesses and that can be attributed to physiological process that promotes weight loss.

How To Cure Vampirism In Oblivion

The easiest way to cure vampirism is once you have contracted Hemophilla (Vampire disease) go to a local church and pray at the alter for a cure (seriously). If you have been sick for more than 3 game days you will be a vampire. There are a few pros to being a vampire. One of the best benefits is a great strength, also you have add bonuses and spells. The biggest draw back is the sun begins to harm you and it forces you to walk at night.

Another draw back is people and merchants will refuse you service in your vampire form. The way to lessen the effects is to feed on sleeping NPCs. The best place to find sleeping NPCs is at the stables of any town. There is usually a farm hand asleep on the outside of the stable. Make sure you access that area after 11 pm. Now that you know how to contract,treat, and live with the disease lets talk about the cure.

Once you are a vampire you need to go to the church and talk with someone at the alter. They will send you on a whirlwind tour across the country talking to different people. You will end up at a old woman's house named Draklowe. She will make you a potion, but first she will need a few ingredients. First, she will need 5 Grand Soul Gems. This part of your journey will take you the longest but, with the help of this guide I can save you a few hours. The Five places I have found Grand Soul Gems:

1)Dungeon of Miscarcand (to the west of Skingard)

2)Squardered Mine (next to Draklowe)

3)Imperial Market (Not sure which Vendor)

4)Leyawjjn (Mages Guild)

5)Bravil (Mages Guild)

Once you have the 5 Grand Soul Gems take them to Darklowe and she will give you the next part of the quest. You will need 6 cloves of Garlic, 5 Nightshade leaves and 2 Shoots of BloodGrass. You will also, need the blood of a Argonian and Vampire ashes form a Vampire named Hindaril. All of the ingredients can be found at various mage guilds and markets. The blood of a Argonian is pretty easy (there are the lizard people). There is a bum Argonian wandering around the city of Leyawjjn poke him with the dagger and you good to go. The last piece of the cure is you need to kill a powerful vampire. Darklowe will give you the exact locaction of Hindaril. Once you kill him she will give you the potion and a extra potion for a friend . I hope this guide helps you in your quest.

How Blogging Impacts Mainstream Marketing

Because I'm a journalist and copywriter who also reads and writes blogs, people who
don't use the Internet as much as I do have started to ask me some searching
questions of late. Some of them sound worried.

They have heard a lot about blogging and the impact it could have on traditional
marketing.

One person even asked me (perhaps a little concerned) if PR teams will be replaced
with bloggers. I don't see it, I reassured them.

PR is also about managing people and that will always be important. The
mainstream media isn't about to disappear, and the majority of the population
probably couldn't care less about blogs. For all the hype, blogging should be seen
as a potential addition to a marketing portfolio.

The place blogging may have its biggest impact is on areas of the trade press.
There is a revolution in publishing taking place, sparked by the new forms of
advertising such as Google ad sense. This has made it possible for someone
running a blog site, with a staff of one and overheads of almost nothing, to start
earning a living from their publishing.

If the blogger can get readers, then Google places the ads (relevant to the content)
and you have a publishing business. This gives a lot of people an incentive to
provide great content so that they get more readers, and more money from ads.

It's just like the traditional press, but without the need for offices, advertising sales
teams, HR departments etc.

This works best in niche areas. Soon, there may not be much need for magazines
about new gadgets, or mobile phones, or ride-on-lawn mowers or whatever.
Because the blogs have it covered, providing more up-to-date information and
readers who are ready to buy and can simply click on the advert.

The everyday bloggers have a new-found power and are not about to go away.
Some blogs now get millions, even tens of millions of readers a day. They are
rivalling the mainstream media and if the US government can't control them, what
chance does a small company or even a big enterprise have?

Companies and blogs
It's still pretty early days for companies using blogs, and the whole thing is evolving.
It will probably settle down into one more piece in the jigsaw, another
communication channel that companies can use.

The style used in company blogs needs to be less "written by committee" and more
personal and spontaneous.

Companies that try to use too much subterfuge in the blogging world are exposing
themselves to a potential backlash. There's a great emphasis on honesty in the
blogging world for example bloggers will often end a post with a "disclosure" note
which mentions any conflict of interest.

At a simple level, blogging can be seen as simply another way of publishing
information on the Internet. It's useful because it is so fast and it's easy to get a
range of people involved quite quickly.

However, there are real skills involved to good blogging. Not only does the writing
have to be engaging, colourful, funny, informative etc, but the writer also needs to
take account of search engine optimisation techniques which basically means
using the right keywords to ensure the blog shows up in the search engines.

At it's most sophisticated, blogging is being used to create "viral marketing"
campaigns to create a "buzz" around a product as though this were coming from
ordinary people. This is a whole new field of marketing / advertising
