Enjoy your morning brew – it may provide a hedge against cancer. A new study of 60,000 women shows that those who drank four or more cups of coffee a day cut their risk for endometrial cancer by 25% compared with those who had a cup or less. (Risk fell by 46% for obese women, who are most prone to developing the disease)

Men may benefit too:

Other recent research suggest a 60% drop in the risk of developing aggressive prostate cancer among those who drink six or more cups of coffee daily, compared with men who don’t have any. And according to a new study published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Bio-markers & Prevention, regular coffee drinkers have a 39% decreased risk of head and neck cancer, but you have to drink at least four cups a day.
