Drink THIS in the morning… and your liver will THANK you!
Friend, I’d like to talk to you today about an UNDERAPPRECIATED… and even OVERLOOKED part of your health.
I’m talking about your liver.
I know it doesn’t grab a lot of headlines…
But this WORKHORSE organ is a CRUCIAL aspect of our digestive systems…
And it’s right at the center of our bodies’ God-given ability to detox themselves.
That’s because your liver BEARS THE BRUNT of everything you consume…
From food and drink… to medicine.
Turns out, there’s something you can drink to actually help SUPPORT your liver health…
And you can start as soon as tomorrow morning.
Friend, the media coverage on coffee can be a little confusing.
Some headlines tell you to STAY AWAY from it… while others EXTOL its virtues!
I’ve got to admit, some of the evidence behind coffee looks really good.
You’ve read before right here in eAlert how drinking a cup of coffee daily has been linked to 12% lower mortality, compared to not drinking it at all.
That’s because it’s PACKED with antioxidants like chlorogenic acid… which has been known to also help protect heart health.
The latest research places yet another feather in coffee’s cap as a healthful beverage…
With a study showing that drinking a little more coffee could SLOW the progression of liver disease.
Specifically, the researchers found that elevated coffee consumption could REDUCE the risk for serious liver complications… like the formation of excess scar tissue known as fibrosis.
In fact, this association held true even when they tested their theory on folks with a disease that really does a number on the liver – hepatitis.
The good news is that you DON’T have to be a hep patient to benefit from drinking coffee…
And you DON’T have to invest in a fancy espresso machine or your own personal barista.
The study found that the benefits hold true even with INSTANT coffee!
This story gets even better…
Because in 2017, the British Liver Trust announced that drinking coffee was associated with a LOWER risk of liver cancer…
Starting with as little as just a cup a day… and IMPROVING with each added serving.
The World Health Organization has publicly agreed… which is a complete TURNAROUND from their claims that coffee could actually CAUSE cancer! Thank goodness THAT turned out to be “fake news.”
Now, the reduction of cancer risk applies to both decaf and “fully leaded” coffee varieties… although the caffeinated forms appear to have a more dramatic effect.
For liver fibrosis, however, caffeine appears to be a KEY component to coffee’s benefits.
If you’re particularly sensitive to caffeine… or your doc has advised you to stay away from it… this liver health tip probably isn’t for you.
But you can also look into other ways of supporting your liver health… like an EGCG supplement… vitamin D… and probiotics.
To your healthy liver,
Sarah Reagan
