A new study by Harvard researchers found that regular coffee drinking can reduce the risk of the most aggressive and deadly form of prostate cancer by 60%.
 

 

U.S. researchers surveyed more than 50,000 volunteers and found that men who drank caffeine daily were two-thirds less likely to develop prostate cancer than those who did not drink coffee.
 


 

According to Dr. Catherine Wilson, who presented the study at a conference in Houston, "Coffee affects insulin and glucose metabolism, as well as levels of sex hormones, all of which play a role in prostate cancer. There may be a link between coffee and prostate cancer ".
 

 

Studies show that the positive effect is not due to caffeine, as a reduction in the incidence of cancer is observed in the consumption of both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee.
 

 

Previous research has shown that tea can protect against prostate cancer, but this is the first study showing that coffee has the same effect.
 

 

Another study presented at the conference showed that 15 minutes of exercise reduced the risk of death in people with prostate cancer by about 35%.
 

 

The authors of the study are adamant that it is still too early to recommend prophylactic coffee drinking.
