Tumor or neoplasm is an abnormal growth of body tissues. Tumors occur when cells divide excessively in the body. The body is always doing cell division to replace the old cells and dead cells with new ones. If the balance of cell division is not interrupted or running normal then that's where the tumor may form.

Benign tumors can be said if the size is below 1-2 cm, and less likely to experience growth and settling its location and not spread or damage other tissues.

But if there is a tendency in the observations, especially if size is bigger than 2 cm in then tumors can become malignant (malignant tumor) because it is spread, damaging the surrounding tissue and often called cancer.

Cause
Tumors are usually caused by a mutation of DNA in cells, the accumulation of these mutations cause tumors. These tumors can be triggered by exposure to chemicals, exposure to too much alcohol, food or environmental toxins, excessive exposure to ultraviolet light, genetic factors or radiation virus.

Symptom
Symptoms depend on tumor location. Suppose a tumor in the lung have symptoms of cough, shortness of breath, chest pain. Tumors in the colon cause weight loss, diarrhea, constipation, anemia and blood in stool.

But most tumors do not cause symptoms; the symptoms will appear after the disease entered an advanced stage. But the most common tumor symptoms are often felt chills (fever), tiredness, loss of appetite, discomfort in the body, often during sleep night sweats, weight loss and shrinking.
Treatment
If the tumor is not dangerous (benign tumor) then usually it not needed surgery and doctors don’t perform any treatment. But if there have been a tendency to grow bigger, then surgery is the best way after that followed by chemotherapy or radiotherapy to kill the tumor tissue to avoid spreading and active again.

DNA or Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid is a nucleic acid that stores all information about genetics. DNA is what determines the type of hair, skin color and specific qualities of human beings.

Inside the cell nucleus, the DNA strands to form a unity called chromosomes. Every normal human cell has 46 chromosomes consisting of 22 pairs of somatic chromosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (XX or XY).

The participants were divided into 2 groups, one of which is conditioned to be in a room lit for 8 hours before bedtime. The other group was placed in a dim room with the same duration of 8 hours.

Results of blood samples taken every 30 minutes showed the hormone melatonin production fell 50 percent in participants who are in the room light. These hormones regulate the biological clock associated with the cycle between sleep and waking.

In addition to triggering sleepiness, melatonin is also associated with some types of serious illnesses. Melatonin receptors located in the nerve can be called to increase the risk of cancer and type two diabetes if its activity is reduced.

"The results provide a big impact for workers who are exposed to light throughout the night last night and nap when the sun shines brightly," Gooley said as quoted by the AP on Monday (1/17/2011).

Pre-diabetes is a condition of increased blood sugar levels above normal, but not too high to be called diabetes. Because triggered by obesity and unhealthy lifestyles, this condition can develop into type-2 diabetes.

Increased sugar levels due to reduced insulin sensitivity, so sugar levels that exist in the body are not metabolized into energy. The result is a buildup of glucose in the blood that can cause damage to vital organs such as liver.

When liver which is an important organ in the metabolic system is not working properly, the overall metabolism will be disturbed. The increase happens not only with sugar but also cholesterol and uric acid.

If cholesterol particularly bad cholesterol or low density lipoprotein (LDL) increases, the risk is in the heart and blood vessels. The most dangerous impact had a stroke and heart attack.

A study conducted by experts at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey revealed that diet with almonds can cope with the initial symptoms of increased blood sugar levels. Recovery rate is quite high, ranging between 90-95 percent.
 
The study, recently published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, involved 65 patients had pre-diabetes. Participants divided into 2 groups, some have almonds every day and others are not.

"Present invention is quite promising for those who have risk factors for chronic diseases, like diabetes and heart attacks," said one of the researchers, Dr. Michelle Wien. As quoted from Dailymail, Thursday (30/12/2010).

Dr. Wien confirmed that almonds may improve insulin sensitivity so blood sugar levels can be better controlled. Moreover, consumption of almonds may also lead to significantly reduced LDL levels in patients with hypercholesterolemia.
