Coffee cuts prostate cancer risk

BBC News: Coffee 'cuts prostate cancer risk' US study suggests. Here's Harvard's press release on the study about coffee and prostate cancer and the paper itself:

...Men who consumed six or more cups per day had a lower adjusted relative risk for overall prostate cancer compared with nondrinkers...

I love the stuff, but six cups is a little more than I can take. Of course there are other ways to lower your prostate cancer risk that have been previously mentioned on Flutterby: 2003, 2008, 2011.
