Coffee Might Lower Risk of Liver Cancer

THURSDAY, Oct. 24 (HealthDay News) -- Drinking coffee might reduce your risk of liver cancer, a new review suggests. Researchers analyzed the findings of 16 studies that were published between 1996 and 2012 and included a total of nearly 3,200 patients. The researchers said that drinking coffee may reduce the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma, the most common type of liver cancer, by about 40 percent. Some of the data also suggests that drinking three cups of coffee a day reduces liver cancer risk by more than 50 percent, according to the findings, which were published in the journal Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology.
