00:00Your morning coffee may be doing more than helping you wake up.
00:03New research suggests black coffee may support better liver health.
00:07Regular coffee drinking has been linked to slower progression of liver disease.
00:11That includes research involving metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, known as MassLD.
00:19This condition affects an estimated 100 million Americans.
00:23Coffee contains caffeine, antioxidants, and other compounds that may help protect the liver.
00:28Research cited in the report found the greatest benefit with two or more cups per day.
00:35But more coffee isn't always better.
00:37Experts caution against exceeding 400 milligrams of caffeine daily.
00:41An 8-ounce cup of brewed drip coffee contains about 95 milligrams.
00:45And what you add matters, too.
00:48Too much added sugar may negatively affect liver health.
00:51So, for now, keeping your coffee simple may be the healthier choice.
