Coffee Linked to Reduced Incidence of Skin Cancer

In what may well turn out to be a mega-inspiring news for all coffee lovers out there, researchers have successfully unveiled more confirmations regarding the fact that coffee tends to have a positive influence in order to combat the most widespread form of skin cancer, especially for women drinkers.

In this regards, the researchers from Boston's Cancer Prevention Research have recently released their reports, wherein they claimed that women who have an inclination towards drinking in excess of three cups caffeinated coffee a day witnessed a 20% reduced threat of falling for basal cell carcinoma (BCC). BCC is widely known as an extremely dangerous and slow-progressing type of cancer. The statistics were made on the basis of comparison made against women who tend to drink no more than one cup of caffeinated coffee each month.

On the other front, men who tend to drink the same quantity of caffeinated coffee witnessed a 9% reduced threat of BCC, revealed the study which was publicized at the organization's 10th American Association for Cancer Research International Conference on Frontiers.

Expressing his opinion regarding the matter, the study's lead researcher Fengju Song said that even many daily dietary aspects having small protective influences are likely to possess great effects on public health, more because almost one million new confirmations of BCC are received every year in America. Mr. Song is a postdoctoral researcher the Harvard Medical School, and is also involved in various research activities at Brigham and Women's Hospital's Department of Dermatology.

He further expressed confidence that the study has indicated that consumption of coffee is likely to be an imperative alternative to assist in preventing BCC.

During the study, the researchers analyzed nearly 72,921 partakers from June 1984 to June 2008, and the data was based on Nurses' Health Study and the Follow-Up Study carried out by health officials from the Harvard School of Public Health.
