Drinking coffee and living a healthy life four cups of coffee a day improves bowel cancer

Recently, a new study from Harvard Medical School found that drinking four cups of coffee a day can improve the survival rate and quality of life of patients with colorectal cancer.

In the new study, the researchers studied nearly 1000 patients with stage 3 colorectal cancer (cancer cells have metastasized to nearby lymph nodes, with a recurrence rate of 35%). All patients underwent three-stage colorectal cancer surgery and chemotherapy.

The results showed that compared with patients who drank 1 cup of coffee a day or did not drink coffee, patients who drank 4 cups or more of caffeine a day or more benefited the most, and their cancer recurrence rate was 42% lower than those who did not drink coffee. The death rate caused by cancer and other reasons also decreased by 33%, and the cure rate of bowel cancer was higher.
