LOS ANGELES (AP) — California health officials proposed a regulation change Friday that would declare coffee doesn't present a significant cancer risk, countering a recent state court ruling that had shaken up some coffee drinkers.

The Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment said its unprecedented move to declare the ubiquitous product safe followed a review of more than 1,000 studies published this week by the World Health Organization that found inadequate evidence that coffee causes cancer.
