Meanwhile other experts have conducted experiments on whether coffee is good for the liver. Experts carried out the experiment for more than a decade, selecting 490,000 people for the experiment. The experts put 78 percent of the people in the experiment and had them drink different types of coffee every day, choosing how many cups to drink according to their needs, with the majority averaging two cups a day, and the remaining 22 percent of the participants not drinking coffee.

This experiment was conducted over a ten year period just to verify if coffee can protect the liver.

If you drink four times the amount of coffee per day, you can maximize the protection of our liver.

So there is no problem with the coffee itself, but what has been most criticized in coffee over the years is the issue of additives. Because after going through the complicated processing, instant coffee tends to lose its original aroma and flavor, resulting in a bitter taste, so many models of instant coffee, the proportion of additives is very high.

Friends in the choice of coffee as much as possible to choose the right for their own, in addition to their own tastes to choose, you can also take into account some of the health factors in moderation, my advice is to choose from the following two aspects.

Try to choose coffee that contains less sugar and less fat.

Because most of the coffee drinkers are young people who sit and work and are more lack of exercise, high sugar and high calorie will make the body become obese. Friends can choose according to the calorie table, try to choose low-calorie Americano.

Drinking coffee is best when there is some milk inside.

Adding milk is not only good for the body, but also reduces the loss of calcium caused by caffeine to the body, and will not let the teeth because of drinking coffee discoloration, so you can choose cappuccino, and latte coffee.

While coffee is good, it's not easy to drink it.

1, coffee contains caffeine, long-term consumption will be dependent on it, it is recommended to control the amount of daily.

2, drink coffee time should also try to put in the daytime, because the night drink will have an impact on sleep. And drink it after meals, otherwise it will stimulate the stomach and intestines.

3, people with stomach problems are advised not to drink coffee.

Okay, I'm going to get myself a cappuccino.
