Coffee Lowers Cancer Risk

The NY Times explores a recent study entitled "Coffee Lowers Risk of Prostate Cancer, Harvard Study Says." Researchers revealed that men who drank 6 cups of coffee per day -- caffeinated or not -- had a significantly lower risk of prostate cancer. They speculate that it is the antioxidants in the coffee may be a major contributing factor. Would you drink 6 cups of coffee a day if it would lower your cancer risk? What other foods or lifestyle changes would also contribute to lower risk of cancer?
