The study involved 5.000 women around the age of 50, half of whom had fallen ill with breast cancer. Scholars then investigated theirs best before date coffee daily and they found out patients who drank at least 5 cups of mocha a day that the risk of tumor fell by a fifth compared to the others.
And in a specific case, that of neoplasm of the breast, the percentage even reached 57%.
