Health Matthers:Drink Coffee to Reduce Cancer Risk

Turns out, coffee has an even greater benefit than just waking you up.

A new study reveals drinking coffee can reduce your rick of oral cancer.

Researchers with the American Cancer Society followed almost one million men and women, tracking their diet and health history.

After adjusting for smoking, alcohol consumption and other factors, the risk of death from oral cancer was 26-percent lower among those who drank one cup of coffee a day, compared to non-coffee drinkers.

The risk dropped 33-percent for those who drank two to three cups, and 50-percent for those who consumed four to six cups each day.

Only caffeinated-coffee reduced oral cancer risk.

Researchers found no such association among decaf or tea drinkers, so just another reason to enjoy that morning joe.
