Caffeine consumption and benign breast disease: a case-control comparison

J. Marshall, S. Graham and M. Swanson

American Journal of Public Health, 1982, vol. 72, issue 6, 610-612

Abstract: In this case-control comparison of 323 women with benign breast disease and 1,458 controls, no differences were noted in the coffee and tea consumption patterns of the cases and controls. These findings do not support the recent suggestion of Minton, et al, that methylxanthine ingestion is causally related to benign breast disease or breast cancer.
