Researchers show that drinking coffee helps reduce the risk of cirrhosis

Cirrhosis is a common chronic liver disease in life, caused by repeated damage to the liver in the body caused by one or more causes. Hepatocyte necrosis and destruction of liver tissue cause the liver to gradually deform and harden, and then develop into cirrhosis. This disease can be fatal and there is currently no effective treatment.
Â
Recently, the US "Science Alert" network reported that 9 research data covering a total of 430,000 people showed that drinking two cups of coffee a day can reduce the risk of liver cirrhosis by 44%. The scientists therefore recommend the use of coffee to effectively prevent liver cirrhosis.
Â
The researchers analyzed five cohort studies and four case-control studies, covering a total of 1990 cases and 432,133 participants. Of the 9 studies, 8 found that the risk of cirrhosis continued to decrease with the increase in the amount of coffee consumed. The researchers concluded that the continued increase in coffee consumption may actually reduce the prevalence of cirrhosis, but the research team did not distinguish between the type of coffee or the way it is brewed.
Â
Samantha Heller, a senior clinical nutrition expert at New York University, points out that although coffee contains ingredients that provide oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects, coffee does not “reverse†the “systemic damage†of the liver caused by bad habits. . In Other words, coffee does provide some protection against cirrhosis, but if you drink alcohol for a long time, don't think that one or two cups of coffee a day can save you from health punishment.
Â
The research leader is Oliver Kennedy, a researcher from the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom. In an interview, he said, “Drinking coffee is very cheap and everywhere, and everyone can accept it, reducing it in a simple way. The risk of cirrhosis is a very important finding, "especially for those who want to improve their health." Now, researchers are in desperate need of more convincing clinical trials to exploit the broader benefits and disadvantages of coffee so that doctors can propose more specific treatments for patients.
Â
According to statistics from the World Health Organization, about one million people die each year from cirrhosis in the world. The causes of cirrhosis are excessive drinking, infectious hepatitis, immune system disorders and fatty liver. The effect of drinking coffee on liver health has attracted the interest of many scientists. After all, there are not many drinks like coffee that have attracted the attention of the scientific community. The various teas produced in China are also one of them.
Â
In 2014, Sanji Fushawura, a US liver specialist and a professor at Harvard Medical School, pointed out that people who drink coffee have lower alanine aminotransferase than those who do not drink coffee. The increase in alanine aminotransferase is an important indicator of liver function problems, which means that coffee has a certain liver protection effect. Summarizing previous studies, it can be seen that as a hot drink, coffee not only affects the biological cycle rhythm of humans, but also reduces the risk of skin cancer and diabetes. Now the efficacy of coffee and liver protection has been further proved, and people have another way to protect their health through daily diet.
