Caffeine does not cause breast cancer

Not a study of nearly 40 million women the precise relationship between caffeine consumption and breast cancer, although some women with lumpy breasts may be at risk, scientists say. The results of several previous studies have shown that caffeine can play an important role in the development of breast cancer for those who regularly drink coffee - one of the most popular beverages in the world. However, the results of the study of 38,432 American women for a few years, scientists have not found the exact relationship between caffeine consumption and breast cancer. The study was published in the Archives of Internal Medicine. However, among women with benign tumors who drank more than four cups of coffee daily, the risk of breast cancer was significantly higher, the researchers said. The results showed that caffeine in large quantities affects the progression of benign tumors in breast cancer, scientists say. The experts found no such relationship in the experimental group participants who drank at least four cups of coffee daily. Caffeine is found not only in coffee but also in tea, chocolate and some medications. How caffeine can affect the occurrence of breast cancer, scientists have yet to figure out, because at this time they are not able to explain the process.
