More job security for YF: Coffee staves off liver damage in heavy drinkers

[MisterCreosote]

Studies have found drinking two "extra" cups of coffee a day reduce the risk of alcohol-induced cirrhosis by 44 percent.

Drinking more coffee may lessen liver damage caused by booze

Two of my so-called bad habits are being validated all at once!

 

[LongTimeListener]

I feel a pro-red-meat story coming on.

 

[YankeeFan]

There's nothing coffee can't do.

It's the original PED. Western civilization's miracle drug since the 17th century.

 

[SpeedTchr]

I still don't know how people drink that evil brew. Or booze, for that matter.

 

[Dick Whitman]

Mrs. Whitman sent me this story, too.

Irish coffee: two birds, one stone.

Lots of sugar for the first one. Have no idea for the second one.

Put a shot of Kahlua in your coffee.

Done.

I used to go with a shot or three of Bailey's.

I used to go with a shot or three of Bailey's.

I used to do that during the holiday season, which I defined as Halloween through Easter.

And everything else is the "summer drinking season," right? I like this kind of thinking.

Leave it to booze and coffee to bring this Kumbaya moment to SJ.com

Sugar? Cream? I think you mean tea.

 

[SnarkShark]

Sugar? Cream? I think you mean tea.

"Room for cream?"

GTFO

I'm sure I've said this before, but Coffee Industry Spokesman YF hits my funnybone in a way I don't understand. Those posts never fail to make me laugh.

 

[YankeeFan]

Proud supporter of booze too.

 

[JohnHammond]

Noticed the article doesn't mention what the original level of risk is without drinking "extra" cups of coffee.

 

[YankeeFan]

Why chance it?

Just drink the extra coffee! It's delicious and it's good for you.

I've lost weight, made some changes in my diet (more coming) and I've walked more than 100 miles 19 months in a row. I'm trying to make it past 60.
But if the doc ever says give up coffee? **** it, I'm out.
