October 25/Washington/Times of India -- Good news for the coffee buffs, especially women drinkers: consuming copious amounts of the beverage daily may help reduce the risk of the most common type of skin cancer, a new study has claimed.
Researchers at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston found that women who drank over three cups of coffee daily were 20% less likely to develop basal cell carcinoma (BCC), a slow-growing form of skin cancer, than those who drank less than one cup a month.
