December 8/London/Press Association Mediapoint -- Drinking coffee may reduce a man's risk of developing aggressive prostate cancer, research suggests. Scientists recorded the coffee consumption of almost 50,000 men taking part in a major U.S. health study.

Over a period of 20 years, 4,975 of the men developed prostate cancer. The study found that men who drank the most coffee had a 60% lower risk of aggressive prostate cancer than those who drank no coffee.
