The scientists found that the body needs in a dark atmosphere to produce cancer-fighting chemicals. Even when we turned on the toilet light, stayed up late, traveling across time zones, street lights could be able to stop the production of melatonin substances.

The body requires chemicals to prevent DNA damage and the lack of melatonin substance will stop fatty acids into the tumor and prevent its growth.

Prof. Russle Reiter University of Texas who led the study, said "Once you are asleep and do not turn off their lights for 1 minute. Your brain immediately detects that the light is on all day and the production of melatonin substance get decreased. "

The number of children people with leukemia rise to double in the past 40 years. About 500 teenager under 15 years old diagnosed with leukemia a year and about 100 people died.

A conference on children with leukemia was held in London said that people suffering from cancer due to too long to use lights at bedtime at night than those who never use light at bedtime.

This suppress the production of melatonin which normally happens between the hours of 9 pm until 8 am.

Previous research has shown that people who are most susceptible are shift workers who are at risk of developing breast cancer.

In fact, blind people who are not susceptible to melatonin have a lower risk of cancer. So the parents are advised to use light bulbs that dim and colored of red or yellow if the children afraid of the dark.
