Abstract

In a pooled analysis of two prospective studies with 35 004 Japanese women, green-tea intake was not associated with a lower risk of breast cancer (222 cases), the multivariate relative risk for women drinking ≥ 5 cups compared with < 1 cup per day being 0.84 (95% confidence interval 0.57-1.24, Trend P = 0.69).
