Surgeon Dmitry Monakhov: several cups of strong coffee drunk in a day can greatly damage the liver.
Doctor Monakhov said in an interview eating habits that adversely affect the condition of the liver. One of these habits, the physician called the abuse of caffeine.
If, in addition to addiction to coffee, a person allows himself to regularly consume fatty meat and alcohol, such a diet, according to Monakhov, can affect the liver like a boxing blow.
“If you drink five cups of espresso during the day, in the evening If you eat lamb shish kebab and three or four glasses of red wine, then consider it like a blow to the liver by a boxer,” he told radio station Moscow Speaks.
The doctor warned that in very rare cases, the body can still tolerate excess caffeine and fatty meat, cope with the breakdown of alcohol. But on a regular basis, such nutrition will certainly contribute to the appearance of serious problems in the functioning of the digestive system.
Certain symptoms of liver disease require urgent medical attention
Monakhov added that individual susceptibility plays a big role in how the body reacts to foods and drinks. Some people have such an enzymatic system that effectively copes with the breakdown of everything that enters the body. But such a digestive ability is a rare genetic gift, not a common phenomenon.
