Good news, coffee junkie! Another reason to drink coffee. Read on.
Drinking a double espresso a day and taking regular exercise may help to prevent skin cancer, researchers say.
Low to moderate amounts of caffeine in combination with exercise can be good for health and prevent damage caused by the Sun’s ultraviolet rays, a study on mice suggests.
Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers in Britain and is becoming more widespread — the number of cases has doubled in the past 20 years.
The study, at Rutgers University in New Jersey, showed that a combination of exercise and some caffeine — equivalent to one or two cups of coffee a day — protected against the effects of the Sun’s ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation, which can lead to cancer. The caffeine and exercise seemingly conspire to kill off precancerous cells whose DNA has been damaged by UVB-rays, the authors say.
What’s more can I say? Coffee is a drink that has so many benefits, start drinking today!
