Recently, existing studies that were reviewed said that most of the coffee drinker get lesser possibility to get this kind of disease that damages your liver. And that's associated with overindulging in food and alcohol.

Researchers knew that consuming two extra cups of coffee daily has a good effect with 44 percent lower risk of getting liver cirrhosis as they studied data from nine previously published studies. Wiley Online Library reports that the total people participated are 432,133.

Coffee has a lot of compounds and much of it is active that could affect the health of a human. The central nervous system is stimulating because of the caffeine, lose of oxidative stress and inflammation, anti-carcinogenesis and these are the biological effects of coffee.

Online library also stated that coffee seems to present a few of effects in the liver disease context. Studies suggested that when you ingest coffee it will lower the amount of abnormal liver function tests, cirrhosis, fibrosis and also HCC.

Kennedy and colleagues from Southampton University in the U.K. did merge studies of the normal consumption of coffee as per Huffington Post. That is to check how much adding two extra cups daily might impact the chances of liver disease.

Kennedy reminded patients that drinking frothy caramel lattes with a bunch of sugar and with whipped cream on top is not a good idea to prevent the said disease. "Coffee is a complex mixture containing hundreds of chemical compounds, and it is unknown which of these is responsible for protecting the liver," Kennedy added.

Though she's not involved in the study, Samantha Heller, a senior clinical nutritionist at New York University, advised about coffee has antioxidant effects. That is because it contains compounds and anti-inflammatory properties.

Heller added that drinking some cups of coffee a day can't help you if you are fat, spend much time seated, you drinking alcohol too much or attenuate a diet that is not healthy. The reason is it cannot undo the damage inside your system.
