I believe that this breakthrough in the medical field just give scientists and doctors some assistance in finding a solid cure for breast cancer, a common disease among women. At first, scientists had very few leads as to what might prevent or reduce the odds of being diagnosed with breast cancer. Then all of a sudden, a group of Swedish researchers discover that a particular ingredient in coffee can make you less prone to aggressive breast cancer. It is not a cure, but it is a step closer to finding the cure to a serious health issue for women around the world. Perhaps the key is to manipulate some of the ingredients in coffee to utilize the component that reduces the risk for breast cancer and proceed from there. I know I am certainly no scientist of any kind but if it were me in the lab and working towards finding the cure for breast cancer, that is what I would do. Obviously, breast cancer is a serious dilemma that requires a method of prevention or a definite cure. For all we know, this breakthrough may be the key component to finding a cure or method of prevention for this hurrendous disease.
