A recent study in Frontiers in Nutrition challenges the belief that green tea reduces lung cancer risk.

Researchers used Mendelian randomization to analyze green tea’s association with lung cancer risk, finding no significant link.

Despite previous claims of green tea’s protective effects, this study suggests otherwise for both non-small cell and small cell lung cancer.

The Mendelian approach, free from observational biases, underscores the complexity of understanding dietary impacts on cancer.

Researchers noted potential biases in prior studies, emphasizing the need to consider lifestyle factors.
