  • Studies indicate a 41% reduction in head and neck cancer risk associated with drinking three to four cups of coffee daily.

A recent study involving over 25,000 participants has found that drinking coffee can significantly reduce the risk of head and neck cancers. The research, which analyzed data from multiple studies, suggests that the protective effects of coffee might be due to its antioxidant properties, which help in reducing inflammation and DNA damage. The study showed that individuals who consumed more than four cups of coffee per day had a notably lower risk compared to those who did not drink coffee. However, the benefits were observed across various levels of coffee consumption, with even moderate intake showing some protective effects. This adds to the growing body of evidence linking coffee consumption with health benefits, although experts caution that coffee should be part of a balanced diet and lifestyle.
