Nutritionist Avni Kaul (India) said that a 240ml cup of unsweetened black coffee is full of vitamins, antioxidants and minerals such as vitamin B12, vitamin B5, vitamin B1, vitamin B3, folate, manganese, potassium, magnesium and phosphorus.
Reduce the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
When you drink coffee, your body produces a chemical called paraxanthine, which slows the development of scar tissue associated with fibrosis. Paraxanthine can also slow down cirrhosis, hepatitis B and C, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, says nutritionist Avni Kaul.
Reduce inflammation
According to a study published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, coffee contains cafestol and kahweol, which help reduce inflammation and reduce the risk of liver disease.
The acids present in coffee can fight the virus that causes hepatitis B, adds nutritionist Avni Kaul.
