Bulgur is another name for wheat groats. Alternately, the word groats can be used to refer to buckwheat in its whole kernel form. High in nutrients, groats are usually prepared first by soaking and then slowly simmered until soft.
Cancer of the adrenal glands can cause the glands to become larger than normal, causing pain, a feeling of fullness, and weight loss.
The causes of adrenal cancer are not known, but it is more likely to occur in the cortex, the outer portion of the adrenal gland, than in the medulla, the central portion of the gland. The adrenal glands produce several hormones, which can be produced in excess when cancer is present. Abnormal hormone levels can cause certain symptoms of adrenal cancer, but people who have early adrenal cancer may not have any symptoms at all.
