Sleep well at night to help the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The researchers found that sleeping less than 6 hours per night increases the risk.
People who sleep less than 6 hours during the working day over a period of one year showed almost 5 times the risk of diabetes compared with the average sleep 6 to 8 pm, according to research presented at the American Heart Association.
Lisa Rafalason, an assistant professor at the University of Buffalo New York says that this study supports the evidence that links lack of sleep to health problems. Sleep should be studied in a clinical visits from the health examination for life.
Studies on the 1455 reported sleep habits, comparing the fasting glucose level over a period of 6 years. The result is adjusted to the age, body mass index, glucose and insulin levels, heart rate, blood pressure and family history of symptoms of depression.
Study showed no difference in fasting glucose level or the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in people with an average of 6-8 hours sleep per night and their sleep on average more than 8 hours. Rafalson said that the results are expected to stimulate additional research on the very complex area of sleep and disease.

Coffee and Diabetes Risk
Harvard School of Public Health Long-Term Coffee Consumption in Relation
Reduced risk for type 2 diabetes
Boston, MA? A study by researchers at the Harvard School of Public
Health and Brigham and Women's Hospital has found that the participants
who regularly drank coffee significantly reduced the risk of starting
type 2 diabetes, compared with non-coffee drinking participants. Of
findings appear in the Jan 6, 2004 from the annals of the Interior
Medicine.
More than 125,000 study participants who were free of diabetes, cancer,
Cardiovascular disease and the beginning of the study were selected from
go in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study and the Brigham and
Women's Hospital-based Nurses Health Study. Approximately 41,934 people were
kept from 1986 to 1998 and 84,276 women from1980 to 1998 by the Food --
frequency questionnaires every two to four years for the assessment of their registration
regular and two decaf Friday
During the span of the study, 1333 new cases of type 2 diabetes were
diagnosed in 4085 between men and women participants. The researchers
also found that men who drank more than six cups
Caffeinated coffee per day to their risk of type 2 diabetes
more than 50 percent compared with men in the study who did not drink
brown. Among women who drank six or more cups per day
reduced risk of type 2 diabetes by nearly 30 percent. These effects
were not living by factors such as smoking, physical activity,
or obesity. Decaffeinated coffee is good, but its effects
were weaker than regular coffee.
The researchers note that caffeine, the best known ingredient in regular
coffee, is known for its blood sugar and increasing energy expenditure
the short term, but long-term effects are not well understood.
Coffee (regular and decaffeinated) has as many antioxidants
chlorogenic acid (one of the compounds responsible for coffee
flavor) and magnesium. These ingredients can improve
sensitivity to insulin and may contribute to reducing the risk of type 2
diabetes.

Laughter may reduce the risk of diabetes
Ironical laughter can help diabetics measure cholesterol increase and decrease the risk of diseases of blood vessels and hearts, so that the results of a new study.
According to Lee Berk of Loma Linda University, who led the study, the impact on the lives of health and illness, and it is a choice between prevention and treatment.
Researchers divided 20 high-risk diabetic patients who suffered from hypertension and hyperlipidemia (a disease of blood vessels and heart) into two groups, and medicines were provided by the standard of diabetes.
Group L received 30 minutes to enjoy the humor that their choices, while Group C-no-monitoring group. This process lasts for one year of treatment.
Process for about two weeks of treatment, all patients in the group laughed (Group L) had higher hormone adrenaline and noradrenaline, are regarded as one of the causes of stress less.
After 12 weeks, HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) was increased by 26 per cent in group L, but only 3 per cent in group C.
In another dimension, C-reactive protein, inflammation and diseases of the blood vessels and the heart, down 66 percent in the group laughed, but only 26 per cent in the group of observers.
"Doctors know best, that there is an internal psychological intervention resulted in positive emotions, such as the merry laughter with laughter, joy, optimism and hope," said Berk.
However, Berk rate will laugh at the drug and a good value with the same diabetes drugs, but insisted that more research is needed to ensure that that the goal of all the results.
