Cancer

Conclusion

To date, approximately 500 studies from America, Europe and Asia have evaluated the potential link between coffee drinking and the risk of developing cancer. They show that moderate coffee drinking does not appear to be associated with an increased risk of developing cancer. They also suggest that, in some cases, moderate coffee consumption may be associated with a lower risk of cancer; however, further studies are needed before any firm conclusions can be drawn.
