However, crushing a cube of Red Dog during the big game? Not so much.
According to the Daily Mail, a recent study that examined data from more than 430,000 people revealed that drinking two cups of coffee a day lowers the risk of liver cirrhosis by 44 percent.
And it gets better the more you drink.
Three cups of coffee will lower the risk by 56 percent, and four cups will lower the risk of severe liver damage by 65 percent.
The new study was actually a combination of nine existing studies, and in eight of those nine studies, the risk of cirrhosis dropped when coffee consumption was increased.
Doctors warned that drinking coffee alone won’t “undo the systematic damage that is the result of being overweight or obese or excessive alcohol consumption,” but let’s be honest: It’s a hell of a start. Sure, you might need to buy a few more rolls of toilet paper every year, but it’s totally worth it if it means you can live a life free of cirrhosis.
