Over the past few decades, numerous scientific studies have linked
moderate coffee consumption to a host of
beneficial effects, ranging from decreased risk of cancer, to improving memory, boosting cognition, and preventing the onset of neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. A recent investigation demonstrates in clear-cut terms that consuming coffee actually hinders the development of cancer in the mouth and throat, LiveScience reports.
In the experiments, it was demonstrated that people who consume
more than 4 cups of coffee each day had a 39 percent lower chance of developing cancer later on in life, the investigators behind the research say. These results were drawn by comparing a study sample of coffee drinkers with a group of persons that did not consume the stuff. Details of the recent study are published in the latest issue of the esteemed scientific journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.

Coffee contains more than a thousand chemicals, some of which have antioxidant and antimutagenic activities. Further research is necessary to identify which ingredients in coffee are responsible for the results we observed in our study,†told Life's Little Mysteries University of Utah assistant professor of medicine Mia Hashibe. She was also the lead researcher on the investigation. The new findings are in tune with previous work, presented last year at the 2009 American Association for Cancer Research Frontiers in Cancer Prevention Research Conference. - source: Softpedia.com
