Two cups of coffee a day reduces the prevalence of liver cancer

How to reduce the probability that a person gets liver cancer? Surprising answer: drink two cups of coffee a day.

Recently, Dr. Larsson and Dr. Volker of Karolinska Institute in Sweden jointly published a report in the American Journal of Gastroenterology, pointing out that through the research data accumulated by the medical community over the past 20 years on the potential benefits of coffee on liver function and liver disease, several studies have found that drinking coffee is inversely related to liver enzyme levels, which in turn are associated with chronic liver disease and cirrhosis.

The researchers then conducted a large-scale search of published epidemiological studies to find a link between coffee drinking and liver cancer risk. They conducted a meta-analysis of the results of 11 studies involving 2260 liver cancer patients and 239146 healthy people who were used for comparative studies. Surprisingly, all studies showed an inverse relationship between coffee drinking and liver cancer risk, and the relationship was particularly strong in six of the studies.

Lazon and Volcker pointed out that coffee contains a lot of antioxidants such as chlorogenic acid, which can fight oxidative stress and prevent the formation of carcinogens. Studies have shown that antioxidants contained in two cups of coffee can reduce the risk of cancer by up to 43%, and previous experiments on animals have clearly shown that coffee and chlorogenic acid do inhibit liver cancer.

Warm tip: "drinking coffee can fight cancer" is still in the theoretical stage, should not drink a lot; moreover, in some special circumstances, drinking coffee, may not fight cancer, anti-health:

1. When suffering from hypertension, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis and other diseases_drinking coffee for a long time or in large quantities can aggravate cardiovascular diseases. One study showed that after drinking a cup of coffee, blood pressure can rise for up to 12 hours.
