Tea and coffee have been part of world culture for hundreds of years. Despite existing for so long, the popularity of both beverages never waned, but instead continues to enjoy worldwide consumption. In fact, tea is the number one most consumed drink in the world while coffee follows a close second place behind it. [1]
When it comes to drinking these beverages, many only think of the pleasure each cup can offer without giving a thought of the health benefits the drinks possess. But if you are looking for a reason why these two are a perfect fit for you as a drink choice, then read on.
According to a recent study published in the Journal of Hepatology, drinking tea or coffee may protect your liver against liver fibrosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. [2] Over the past decades, the modern diet has shifted in many unhealthy ways. Our consumption of sugary processed foods that virtually lack nutrients paved the way for the development of a condition called fatty liver disease.
Fatty liver disease results from the excessive accumulation of fat within the liver cells and when left uncontrolled can lead to scarring and fibrosis. This is commonly seen in people who practice a sedentary lifestyle while consuming a more “westernized diet”. [3] In the study, researchers analyzed the data gathered from over 2,424 participants and found that the group who drank 3 cups of tea or coffee per day showed lower liver stiffness values compared to those who did not drink the beverages.
Researchers involved in the study pointed out that although the exact mechanism on how coffee and tea consumption protects the liver is still unknown, they theorized that it may be related to the antioxidant effects found in the drink.
Whichever the case, it only gives us more reasons to sit back and enjoy a warm cup of coffee or tea all for ourselves.
