“We recommend at least three cups every day to help prevent liver problems, and if you have hepatitis or fatty liver disease, even more — as many as four, five or even six cups a day — might be helpful."

"For the study -- which received no funding from the coffee industry -- Roderick's team used U.K. Biobank data on nearly 500,000 people with "known coffee consumption" who were followed for a median of about 11 years ... Compared with non-coffee drinkers, those who drank coffee had a 21% lower risk of chronic liver disease and a 20% lower risk of chronic or fatty liver disease. Their risk of dying from chronic liver disease fell 49%, researchers found...
Dr. David Bernstein, director of the Sandra Atlas Bass Center for Liver Diseases at Northwell Health in Manhasset, N.Y., said several studies have found coffee is good for the liver. "But this is the first study to show that the effect was seen in both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee drinkers and that ground coffee provided a greater benefit than instant coffee," he said.
The findings were published online June 21 in the journal BMC Public Health."

"For decades, experts have associated coffee consumption with a reduced risk of liver disease. But things like recall bias and lifestyle factors have likely impacted these findings.
This notion inspired Elliot Tapper, M.D., an associate professor of internal medicine at Michigan Medicine, to team up with liver specialists from Harvard Medical School and study the effects of coffee consumption on liver health without including external influences. Their findings were published in Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology...
The team found that individuals who consumed more than three cups of coffee a day showed reduced levels of liver stiffness when lifestyle factors were considered. They also found that these same individuals experienced reduced risks associated with increased liver stiffness."

"Over the past 20 years, an increasing number of epidemiological and experimental studies have demonstrated the positive effects of coffee on chronic liver diseases. Coffee consumption has been inversely associated with the activity of liver enzymes in subjects at risk, including heavy drinkers. Coffee favours an improvement in hepatic steatosis and fibrosis, and a reduction in cirrhosis and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. The mechanisms of action through which it exerts its beneficial effects are not fully understood. Experimental studies show that coffee consumption reduces fat accumulation and collagen deposition in the liver and promotes antioxidant capacity through an increase in glutathione as well as modulation of the gene and protein expression of several inflammatory mediators.

"Coffee has long been recognized as having hepatoprotective properties, however, the extent of any beneficial effect is still being elucidated. Coffee appears to reduce risk of hepatocellular carcinoma, reduce advancement of fibrotic disease in a variety of chronic liver diseases, and perhaps reduce ability of hepatitis C virus to replicate."

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih. gov/25291138/
"Several data on a potentially favourable effect of coffee on liver function and liver diseases have accumulated over the last two decades. These span from liver enzymes, to cirrhosis and to hepatocellular carcinoma, and therefore constitute a continuation not only of epidemiological data, but also of biological and clinical evidences."
