With around 66% of Americans drinking coffee every day, its consumption has long been the subject of scientific study. Previous research has pointed to coffee for its positive effects<\/a> on cognition, fat loss, and physical performance, dismissing the idea that moderate consumption causes dehydration. And now, investigators at Cedars-Sinai have linked regular coffee drinking with liver protection. Here\u2019s what you need to know.<\/p>\n

In one of the widest raging studies on coffee and liver health ever conducted, scientists attributed coffee consumption with a lower risk of cirrhosis, liver cancer and other liver-related conditions. \u201cPrevious studies suggested that coffee might benefit the liver, but most were smaller or looked at only one piece of the puzzle,\u201d said Hyunseok Kim, MD, MPH, PhD,<\/a> who is an assistant professor of Medicine at Cedars-Sinai, and was a corresponding author of the study. \u201cWe followed hundreds of thousands of people for more than a decade and looked at their health outcomes along with liver MRI scans and blood protein analyses. Together, those findings help explain the biological mechanisms behind coffee\u2019s association with better liver health.\u201d<\/p>\n

What the New Cedars-Sinai Coffee Study Found<\/h2>\n

Researchers used sample data from more than 355.000 adults who did not have cirrhosis or liver cancer at the beginning of the study. They followed up 13 years later to track any new cases of these ailments, along with liver-related deaths.<\/p>\n
