What is the link between coffee intake and prostate cancer? 

Greetings I'm 67 years old I have been drinking espresso coffee black no sugar or cream for over 50 years and I feel healthy, with no disease thank God! Be safe peace👍

I've had Prostate Cancer since 2008 and drink 3 cups of coffee a day.. They said my life expectancy was 5 to 10 years and I'm on year 15.. I suffer not in His light..

There is something I always say when having a cup of coffee: "God bless whoever discovered it" What an awesome beverage.

Very good video. I was over 4 on psa 15 years ago. I had one more psa a year later around 5 on psa. This made the doctor nervous so I told him, just don't give me a psa test ever again if it would make him feel better. He stopped and not having to listen to his biopsy protocol suggestion, made both of us feel better, especially me. No biopsy ever, and I am in my late 70's. I drink strong hi test coffee with a pinch of milk, no sugar ….3 cups a day, sometimes more. I love coffee . I repented of my sins and Jesus is my Savior so when He wants me, I am ready. Also, I am a old Marine combat vet. Sometimes ,you have to be your own doctor, especially in these times! Semper Fi.

One of the most wonderful simple pleasures in life is to enjoy a good cup of coffee.

Love coffee. Can drink 4 cups and lay down and sleep no problem. 73 yrs old and still running strong, no meds. Thank God.

I disagree. i am 82 yo (yup...still mobile, and UGLY). i have been drinking Coffee since about 6 OR 7 years old. While in the Navy, drinking 4 cups or more of 40-weight was "normal", and even today i drink 2 cups each morning... sometimes 3. no problems.

I’m 60 years old drink around 3ltrs of fresh coffee a day average heart rate of 68 resting no health issues to date

The country that have more coffe consume also have the higher rate of cancer and this is Finlandia. And the two country than have lower consume of coffe also have the less rate of cancer and this are Nicaragua and El Salvador. Casuality ?

Green Tea...REAL Green Tea...Leaves! brewed with distilled or Spring water...

I have. been a long term coffee drinker from my college years up until the present. I normally drink 2 -3 full sized mugs of coffee every day. I have two friends who are non coffee drinkers. Both have one thing in common. Both are experiencing prostate cancer. The oldest is 73 and the youngest is 68. I am 72 with no prostate cancer and a low PSA level

I have been drinking 2 to 3 pots of coffee 57 years and I have no problem with sleeping.

My husband died 4 years ago prostate cancer. He never drank coffee ever. He had tea instead. It spread down his bones in leg. His mothers uncle died same way. I don't drink strong coffees.

Yay! Another reason to drink coffee daily!👍👍✌️🙂

I was diagnosed with low grade prostate cancer last year. My father had prostate when he was in his late 70, and had to have his prostate removed. I don't remember him ever drinking a lot of coffee. At 72 I was diagnosed with low grade prostate cancer. It is being monitored, and have been told I will probably die of something else. I have always been a heavy coffee drinker...

I've got those blessed genes says my DNA test. Thanks for telling those good news. Both my dad and grandfather had prostrate cancer. I go through screening very often then. Thanks again!

Dr. Hashmi, My name is Kenny. I am in my mid sixties right now very careful of anything i eat. I go to sleep thinking of waking up to have coffee. I love the calming experience of sitting and sipping that cup, its aroma, its calming nature, for me. If i am sleepy, i can drink a cup and fall asleep five seconds later, no problems. I have never thought of the health benefits of coffee other than its nature of allowing me that moment to reflect on the beauty of our mortal existence, that someone or something somewhere gave us this moment. Thank you for this dialog that we may still have quite a bit to understand that things that exist in nature around us may be the salvation to a harmonious existence to a healthier life.

I am 74 yrs old. I love coffee. I drink 2 cups per day. Thank you Sir, for the info.❤

Bad info i think tea is better , fasting is good also , zinc and eating healthy after you fast for five days ! Then eat but healthy , punkinseed oil , is good or in capsuls , eat less stay away from fat foods and proccess foods and suger thats what im doing ,

Thank you for providing us with your valuable presentation about the link between coffee intake and prostate cancer.

Hi Doc, do you mean Coffee without Cream ? Black Coffee or it does not matter and one can add cream or milk, would you please clarify?

i love coffee. Drink more than 10 cup every day since 50 years ago. So far no health problem, not on any medication or food supplement. May be Malaysian coffee is the best in the world

Perfectly made video. Only five minutes and enough to understand. Thanks.

Handy hint: Add a few granules of salt to your black coffee (no sugar) to take away the bitterness.

I'm a 2 cups a day person who's just had a TURP and clear biopsy. Glad to hear I don't have to give up coffee. I've already given up booze! I still have one pleasure left haha!

I've been drnking black coffee 3 cups a day regularly for about 15 years now and I am 63. I drink 4 am, 11 am, and between 5 and pm everyday. The way brew the coffee , no sugar or milk, is I put the coffee powder (not instant), Robusta or Arabica in the cup and pour hot water or boiling water, without filter. My metabolism is normal. I have no kdney and prostate problems so far. Besides coffee, I eat a lot of cucumber and tomatoes as a replacement of cooked vegetable. Fastfood probably once in 6 months. I eat a lot of fried fish, tofu and tempe. I have no sleepng problem. I can drnk coffee at 5 or 6 pm, and by 8 or 9 feel sleepy and could fall asleep anytime.

Caffeine really does have health benefits, but anybody who consumes a high sugar diet will have autoimmune issues...which can eventually lead to cancer. For me, the breakthrough was learning about living a Ketogenic lifestyle with intermittent fasting. The human body is capable of eating/consuming itself through autophagy and i would suggest that everyone becomes aware of this.

I call BS because they won't say if its only coffee (black) or, all the crap some people put into their coffee.

If I would be a death penalty prisoner, I would ask for a cup of black coffee without sugar before the early morning of the execution day, and there no last meal is needed. Thank doc!

Thank goodness, as I don't drink alcohol or tea and only drink coffee and water, I'm glad this one treat is OK.

Thank you once again Dr Omole on RU-vid for this information. Since following you (for some years now), my kidney stage results has decrease from stage 3 to stage 1. You saved me from dialysis.Thank you and please keep the videos coming!! God Bless

Well, I'm good then. I drink at least 2.5ltrs of fresh ground coffee every day. I will die of something, but it won't be the prostate that punches my ticket.

I'm 83, and still can drink coffee all day, and half caff after about 6 PM, with no effect on my sleep. All told, it comes to about 6 or 7 cups daily. I don't have any outer effects either, like jitters, or anxiety. I've been drinking it so many years, I'm probably just immune.

So . . . if the people who metabolize caffeine quickly have improved cancer recovery vs. people who metabolize it slowly, what I'm hearing is you're better off drinking decaf coffee. You still get the benefits of coffee without the negative effects of caffeine. Then it doesn't matter how quickly or slowly I metabolize caffeine.

I drink a pot of coffee a day. Who knows what that equals out to because it's water with 5 scoops of actual coffee. Either way, I can drink a cup at noon and still have a 2 hour nap at 2pm.

Is decaffeinated coffee better for your health than normal coffee?

Another excellent review and discussion, Sean. Regarding coffee, I wonder if there is any information on its effects on renal cysts, renal papillary necrosis and eGFRs and what your thoughts might be regarding these relationships?

sadly due to adrenal issues, I had to stop caffeine consumption, now drink only decaf, but found it has an amazing benefit to relaxation and a mid day nap, which I do to keep blood pressure down. I'd say coffee is good if you don't have issues with the hypothalmus and maintenance of a normal adrenal system.

It would be useful to know if there is a relationship between prostate enlargement and caffeine. Because there lots more people with a enlarged prostate than those with prostate cancer. Thank you 👍

Thank you for the medical updates. My dad died at age 73 from prostate cancer. He never took coffee. But all his brothers lived passed or is still living passing 85 years of age. Obviously coffee plays a good medical part here in extending longevity when one is "visited" by such rogue cancer cells

If the trillion dollar coffee industry funded a study where they found coffee was bad, do you think they would tell you?

It's not the coffee it's the other crap people eat

I can drink coffee and sleep immediatly.

I can drink coffee I hour before bed and sleep good . At 75 no prostate problem .

Everyone I know (3) who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer never drank coffee. I drink 1 to 2 cups a day, but only in the morning. I do have heart troubles ,3 heart attaches guessing not caused by coffee.

Very informative video! Thank you. Drinking several cups of coffee per day means drinking several cups of WATER per day. It's been shown that drinking more water helps with prostate health and also helps improve response to prostate cancer treatment. So, I'm curious how this was factored into the study?

I've been a heavy coffee drinker for 50+ years, always quit drinking coffee before noon, black only. Still got prostate cancer. Monitored it for 5 years before having the prostate removed. 6 years later and still drinking coffee and PSA so far is still

The taste, great. The buzz, the mental clarity, the health benefits, all great. Liquid anxiety, not so great. Like all good drugs, every up has a down. Anxious, neurotic, paranoid, quick tempered - in a world gone to hell in a handbasket rife with temper tantrums and depression, I'll opt for jovial and serene with prostate cancer. Damn shame because I really like coffee.

I expect it'd send you running to the toilet more .I also expect that Prostrate Cancer might be caused by gene damage although I am more knowledgeable about rare T Cell Lymphomas than the more common cancers.

People also underestimate how damaging caffeine is, above 200/300 mg a day, for the brain, psicologically / psychiatrically speaking. Caffeine-induced psychosis is not so rare at all.

Did they cross check if the gene for fast metabolism helps with prostrate cancer survival or the coffee consumption. ( people with the slow metabolism will tend to drink less coffee)

Nonsense. With the increasing global coffee consumption and the rising rate of prostate cancer, drawing your own conclusion hardly requires any further studies.

I wish he would get to the point quickly!

Several years ago I started eating a three-egg omelette every morning. I had a PSA test about 6-8weeks later and it was our-of-range. I believe in cause and effect so I eliminated the omelette from my diet and tested again in a few months. It was back to normal. I have been drinking coffee since I was a teenager. I used to drink a pot a day but now drink about three cups of coffee per day. I am scheduled for a PSA soon and will be interested in the results.

Make sure it's fresh ground coffee beans and not some brand of instant granules which will have had any goodness, antioxidants etc... processed out of it.

I'm 61 yrs old and i was drinking coffee 3 times a day since 1973. I'm good and healthy.

"Patient summary - It is likely that coffee intake is associated with longer prostate cancer-specific survival in certain groups, but more research is needed to fully understand which men may benefit and why." "although results were not statistically significant."

I am a BEAST without coffee,,, starting My without coffee is simply unacceptable ,,, gotta have it 👍

It's all common sense 😂😂😂 If you like coffee, just drink it. If your sleep is affected by coffee, you will or probably have made adjustments accordingly (drink before noon or drink less). There are researches supporting the benefits of coffee. (If you don't like coffee at all or don't care about coffee (dislike the taste or dislike the name), just don't drink it 🤣)

My doctor was not at all worried that I have a few cups of coffee a day... he said as long as I didn't add cream and sugar, studies said it was good for you.

As per my opinion, who is doing cycling, hard labour eating Sesame may less prostate problem.

When my father wanted to have a really good nights sleep, he would have a cup of coffee. When I drink coffee, I have no problem sleeping throughout the night.

I too cannot have coffee after noon or I cannot fall asleep at my regular bed time. Now I know why. Thanks.

I got a super coffee metabolism. I can drink coffee and fall to sleep right after i finished a cup of it.

Does decaf coffee have the same effect? I thought it was the antioxidants in coffee that conferred health benefits, not caffeine.

Also for those who want to keep Cancer at bay, Ivermectin is well known to have major MAJOR anti Cancer properties ! This would be one to explore!

My dad drank coffee every minute he was awake and never got prostate cancer, and lived till he was in his 70s. Maybe there is a correlation.

I drink between 6 and 8 double espressos a day, usually by 2pm but sometimes in the evening.

You should specify what you mean by cups. Are these typical 6-8 oz cups when referring to cups or literal cups?

I’ve had two family members who both had prostate cancer recently.They never drank coffee .

I am a 3 to 4 cups a day guy. Had my prostate removed Jan 2nd 2020.

Thanks for this really balanced and useful interpretation of this meta-study. Much appreciated.

Did the coffee had Sugar and Milk?🙄🙈

Of course the amount of caffeine in coffee can vary quite a bit depending on the type of coffee bean & how it is roasted, how big the cup size & how it is brewed.

68 yrs old poor health and handicapped. Haven't been diagnosed with "Prostate" cancer, but have enlarged Prostate and they're suggesting I have "Lung" cancer.(smoked avg 2 pks a day for 48 yrs, quit 5 years ago) I'm Not doing any cancer "Treatments". I think the "Treatments" are a "Crap Shoot" at best. Largely a waste of money, Especially if you don't have much. I'm just starting to "Eat" more healthy, exercise more, and leave it in God's hands. As far as coffee, I usually have 1 mug in the morning, +, I add 2 Green Tea bags to it. No creamer, and Honey for sweetener. Occasionally I have a second cup in the afternoon.

Headlines are functional SOLELY when they define NEGATIVE or POSITIVE correlations. Otherwise, CLICKBAIT. High doses of caffeine reduce g, as repeated studies have confirmed for over 1/2 century. Caffeine, due to its synaptic effects, induces dependence - the famed "brain fog" before first dose has repeatedly been recognized as a cognitive symptom of this neural hijacking. When far lower doses induce problematic physical, emotional, mental disruption, i will not waste further time in comment or attention to attempts to profit from this toxin.

Oh my goodness! What a waste of time! You didn't show any link between prostate cancer and coffee consumption! You MIGHT have shown a correlation, if anything. Remember, correlation does not equal causation!

I drink coffee and take q10 my PSA went from a 2.25 to 3.75 from the q10 I’ve had testing that looked weird and a brutal needle biopsy in 2015 no cancer and no testing since some supplements, dairy will Jack up the number.

and then the next expert tells you coffee is great for yr health, stay away from these bunch of clowns on youtube to stay really healthy

Fabulous info!! Thanks. 😎😇👍

When I got off of all caffeine my frequency of urination reduced (72 years old). This in turn significantly helped me to sleep longer which improved quality of life. I avoid caffeine from any source: coffee, tea, chocolate, and medications. Will be this way for a very long time. It is not worth losing quality of sleep to enjoy the wonders of caffeine.

Cancer is one thing but I think people should think twice before assuming Coffee is "good" for the Prostate...there are multiple studies available on Pubmed showing an association between "chronic" caffeine intake and the development/worsening of BPH. Do your research folks and not only to justify your addictions lol

Its not a genome type its incorrect, metabolism can be changed, before I started HIIT and dawn sunlight eye exposure 2-3 years ago I could never drink more than two and if I drank after midday I would be up till 3 in the morning everytime, now I'm free. It's epigenetic 100%

Sugar and Milk mixed with pesticide common Cough-fee is a difficult combo for the body. No one in their right mind would fill a Pagani Zonda on pesticides ladden dirty water, so why does your body deserve any less than the best money can buy Pesticide free coffee, expresso machine and quality water nothing like it.

The enemy of science is infinity. Too many variables, were the people drinking coffee using milk which has a causal link to breast and prostate cancer? What were the people not drinking coffee replacing it with? Etc., etc. We have toe be very careful of studies, are there mega analysis of this? Is it associative or causal? Who funded the study? Where are your links to the study?

I can drink a cup of coffee and immediately take a nap. I guess it's considered fast?

Interesting information! Not a coffee drinker, but I may start.

Anything manufacturered through God's nature is designed for the body with natural healing properties. Especially anything Green.

I am 77 yrs old and have been drinking sugarless black coffee for many years but get headaches when I stop. Many times I have stopped but continue drinking again as I am addicted. I hope someone can tell me how to stop permanently. Its affecting my sleep cycle even when I stop drinking at 1130 hrs.

Antioxidants. Coffee may be the highest concentration of antioxidants most people consume each day. Eat your fruit and veggies, boys and girls.

I have been having prostate issues [Prostatitis] for over 30 yrs, some coffee types make it much worse, if I go off coffee for a week the symptoms are mostly gone, if I take a non coffee caffeine supplement I don't get the Prostatitis symptoms, I think it's coffee itself not the caffeine that causes prostate issues. The prostate is super sensitive and very prone to develop allergies to certain foods, herbs, spices etc. The Prostatitis I have, originally started with a dairy/nut allergy, it got really bad and antibiotics didn't help much, I was scheduled for exploratory surgery to see what was happening to my prostate, I was eating a heavy amount of cheese and other dairy, I noticed the more I consumed the worse the Prostatitis got, so I totally cut dairy and noticed a big improvement, it took about a year to mostly recover, nuts were another bad one. Chronic Prostatitis can lead to cancer and I believe that most prostate issues [Prostatitis, enlargement, etc] are from some kind of allergic reaction, if certain foods, drinks give your prostate a flutter or a strange sensation, the odds are that your prostate is having a problem with what you ate/drank. Anyhow i hope this helps someone who is not having much luck with the medical community with a chronic prostate issue.

What about the Roasting ? Alot of pructs that are roasted or heat prossesed, (like the Drink called Perot , a coffee substitute) Bread, and others, have Cancer Warnings. Wheres the discussion about this ? Thanks. 🤓

coffee? can't abide the stuff. FAR TOO BITTER for me. but i am an absolute maniac for cocoa (aka hot chocolate) does chocolate have caffeine in it?

It wasn’t the coffee consumption. It was what they added to their coffee like CoffeeMate creamer which causes cancer from the hydrogenated oils.

I don't agree with your link. Its like this, so many things can cause cancer, the environment, food, depression, name it. So let's keep on living, remove all depressing comments.

Tomatoes, Broccoli, Tuermic I believe can help Lower PSA from doubling

Your generalising way too much. Consider Coffee Brand, Sugar Type, and Water used.

I go to bed with a coffee and find it hard to sleep if i dont 😂 im guessing my cafine metabolism is very fast, between 80 and 120 oz in 20oz mugs a day never with milk

One of the most confusing presentations I think I've ever seen. Great job....stay tuned. We can do an even better job of it next time. And have another cup on us - we don't drink coffee.
