DSD was right all along!

CHICAGO, Illinois (Reuters) -- Could Irish coffee be the perfect drink?

Researchers report that drinking coffee cuts the risk of cirrhosis of the liver from alcohol -- by 22 percent per cup each day -- but they stopped short of saying doctors should prescribe coffee for that reason.

The report from the Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program in Oakland, California, was based on a look at data from 125,580 people.

"These data support the hypothesis that there is an ingredient in coffee that protects against cirrhosis, especially alcoholic cirrhosis," concluded the report published in the Archives of Internal Medicine.

What could cause the apparent protective effect is not clear, the report said.



Thank goodness my Grandmother started me on coffee young. I'm saved!

Smiley: boozing

Well I've been on a full pot o' coffee a day for awhile now. Unfortunately, I neither drink heavily or have boobies. My girlfriend, meeting both those criteria, doesn't drink coffee at all.

Maybe if you get her stoned off her rocker, you could convince her that the benefits are transferrable via *****. [:*******:]

No, that doesn't work on her. She'll usually only do that when she's really drunk. Which is most of the time.

About a month ago another study said that a similar amount of "filtered" coffee (not French press or Turkish - not the stronger stuff) had no appreciable bad effects on health - and also decreased the chance of getting Type 2 Diabetes.

Back to your two beers = um... yeah, that....

What happened in Boston, stays in Boston.

I had a hell of a lot more than those two beers.
