[QUOTE="CHenry, post: 3078405, member: 6281"] Most Americans drink at least 1 cup of coffee a day, and many feel like they can’t face the morning without it. So wouldn’t it be great if our beloved beverage helped protect us from cancer? There is, in fact, some reason to believe it could. Coffee is brewed from beans that contain [URL='https://www.cancer.org/healthy/eat-healthy-get-active/acs-guidelines-nutrition-physical-activity-cancer-prevention.html/acs-guidelines-on-nutrition-and-physical-activity-for-cancer-prevention-common-questions.html']antioxidants[/URL], which are thought to have a protective effect against cancer. Researchers have conducted more than 1,000 studies looking at this question, with mixed results. Some early studies seemed to show that coffee might [I]increase[/I] risk of some cancer types. Since then, however, larger and better designed studies have weakened those conclusions. And many of the newer studies link coffee drinking to a lowered risk of some types of cancer, including [URL='https://www.cancer.org/cancer/prostate-cancer.html']prostate cancer[/URL], [URL='https://www.cancer.org/cancer/liver-cancer.html']liver cancer[/URL], [URL='https://www.cancer.org/cancer/endometrial-cancer.html']endometrial cancer[/URL], and some [URL='https://www.cancer.org/cancer/oral-cavity-and-oropharyngeal-cancer.html']cancers of the mouth and throat[/URL].
