Enjoy your morning brew and it may provide a hedge against cancer. A new study of 60,000 women shows that those who drank four or more cups of coffee a day cut their risk for endometrial cancer by 25 percent, compared with those who had a cup or less. (Risk fell by 46 percent for obese women who are most prone to developing the disease).
Men may benefit too. Recent research suggests a 60 percent drop in the risk of developing aggressive prostate cancer among those who drink six or more cups of coffee daily, compared with men who don’t have any.
