Frequent Consumption of Coffee Affects The Size Of The Br-east

Women who regularly consume coffee need to be prepared for the fact that their br-éasts begin to decrease over time. First of all, this applies to those who drink coffee several times a day.

Swedish researchers from Lund University conducted an unusual study, where 300 women participated. They all drank coffee on a daily basis, and the researchers recorded changes in br-éast size. Scientists argue that a pattern has been revealed: participants that where drinking more than three cups of coffee a day on average lost 17% of the volume of the br-éast.

However, according to scientists, coffee can have a positive impact on the health of women, reducing the risk of developing br-éast cancer. In addition, a drink can influence the level of male hormones in the female body, which is also associated with an increased risk of br-éast cancer.

It seems that everything is good in moderation!
