Fresco Gourmet Coffee comments on study showing that coffee benefits liver

The National Cancer Institute has recently announced new research showing that the more coffee you drink the lower your risk of abnormal liver enzymes.

The study looked at 27,000 participants, measuring their consumption and enzyme levels over a 24 hour period, to better gauge the health of their liver. Surprisingly to some, the conclusion was that not only is the popular beverage beneficial for your liver but it also doesn’t matter how much caffeine is consumed.

Those who consumed three or more cups on a daily basis had significantly reduced enzyme levels in blood, a known indication of liver health.

Dr. Xiao, a lead researcher for the study, said: “Prior research found that drinking coffee may have a possible protective effect on the liver. However, the evidence is not clear if that benefit may extend to decaffeinated coffee.

“Our findings link total and decaffeinated coffee intake to lower liver enzyme levels. These data suggest that ingredients in coffee, other than caffeine, may promote liver health. Further studies are needed to identify these components.”

David Bernstein, herpetology division chief at the North Shore University Hospital, added: “There have been several studies which have intimated that drinking coffee may be protective to the liver and even prevent the development of liver cancer.”

Fresco Gourmet Coffee, a British supplier who regularly react to news and research, were excited by the news, believing that the research will do wonders to encourage more people to up their consumption.

A spokeswoman for the company said: “We all know that it tastes fantastic but what we don’t hear enough of is the many health benefits. Every couple of months it seems like there’s a new study out which explains that coffee is good for our health and that’s something that not everybody is aware of.

“At Fresco we have so many great options available, from flavoured Halloween blends to Italian or instant coffee, and we’re always keen to tell our customers about some of the unknown benefits of our favourite drink.”
