Drinking coffee cuts liver cancer risk!

[Health India]: Sydeny, Jan 21 : Drinking a hot cuppa everyday can help you keep liver cancer at bay, a new research has revealed.

The team of researchers at the Tohoku University, Japan has found that coffee helped lower the risk of cirrhosis, and that chlorogenic acid, present in coffee beans reduced the risk of liver cancer.

The team studied 61,000 people aged 40 years or over and analysed data based on the subjects' age, sex, and other factors, and concluded that the chances of developing liver cancer were 0.58 for those who drink more than a cup of coffee per day and 0.71 for those who drink less than a cup of coffee a day, compared with the base figure of one for non-coffee drinkers.
