Coffee may help cut uterine cancer risk
May 4th, 2010 - 12:24 pm ICT by ANIWashington May 4 (ANI): Two cups of coffee a day can lower the risk of uterine cancer, claims Mayo Clinic research.
Uterine cancer is the most common cancer for women’s reproductive organs.
According to the American Cancer Society, last year, 42,160 new cases were diagnosed, and it caused 7,780 deaths.
The research found that, among the 20,000 women who participated, those who drank more than two-and-a-half cups of coffee daily were less likely to develop uterine, or endometrial, cancer as compared to women who did not drink coffee at all, reports CBS. (ANI)
