5. Liver Protection
The liver is one of the body’s major organs and serves many essential functions. Many diseases can affect the liver adversely such as hepatitis and fatty liver disease, which can lead to cirrhosis.
But studies show that coffee drinkers have liver enzyme levels superior to non-coffee drinkers. Coffee drinkers are also less likely to develop diseases such as liver cancer, fibrosis and cirrhosis. The chances of contracting any of these diseases decrease along with the number of cups of coffee that are consumed.2‘Coffee makes for a happy liver, says board of experts.’ Medical News Today, www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320089.
