A study on the effect of tea on cancer "found a 43 percent reduction in cancer risk among women and a 32 percent reduction in men who drank 10 or more cups of green tea per day compared to those who drank fewer than three cups daily."

10 cups of tea a day is a little much (I would have to pee every hour!) but this is still good news to me since I always keep a teapot by my desk and drink about 4-5 cups a day, more out of habit than anything else since I grew up drinking the stuff...my favorite being the standard Genmaicha (brown rice green tea).
