ROCKVILLE, Md. — A new study finds drinking coffee may actually lower the risk of a deadly form of skin cancer.
Researchers at the National Cancer Institute looked at the coffee habits of about half a million participants.
They found those who drank four or more cups a day of caffeinated coffee had a 20% lower risk for malignant melanoma.
The study points out results are preliminary and may not apply to everyone.
