Coffee Reduces Skin Cancer Risk, Who Knew?

Good news for the coffee addicts especially women drinkers: Consuming copious amounts of the beverage daily may help reduce the risk of the most common type of skin cancer a new study has claimed.

Researchers at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston found that women who drank over three cups of coffee daily were 20% less likely to develop basal cell carcinoma (BCC), a slowgrowing form of skin cancer, than those who drank less than one cup a month.

But, men who drank same amount of the beverage saw only a 9% reduction in the disease, found the study. BCC rarely spread to other parts of the body, and rarely return if they are promptly removed.

The study, found an association, not a direct cause-effect link.  So don't get too excited, yet.  But go ahead and have another cup of Joe.
