Drinking Coffee and Tea May Prevent Liver Disease for Residents of Fanwood

Chronic liver disease is a leading cause of death in the United States, with nearly 32,000 people dying from it each year.

Now, a new study suggests that a cup of coffee or tea a day may help prevent this disease. Dr. Eric Chludzinski of Fanwood Back Relief Center in Fanwood & scotch Plains explains the study.

In the study, 2,424 participants underwent a full physical checkup, which included anthropometric measurements such as body mass index, height, blood tests, and abdominal scans.

The data revealed that frequent coffee and herbal tea consumption consistently correlated with a significantly lower risk of liver stiffness, which suggests regular coffee or tea intake may prevent liver fibrosis before the signs of liver disease start to appear.
