Coffe - Is it good for our health ???


For many of us the day does not begin until we have enjoyed our first cup of coffee.

We know it helps increase our energy and alertness, but there is increasing scientific evidence to show that coffee may also help provide significant protection against the development of liver disease.



  • In this post we'll try to show how coffee drinking specifically could be protective against:
    Cirrhosis of the liver (a disease causing progressive damage and scarring of the liver tissue and function)

  • Gallbladder disease - by reducing the risk of gallstone formation.

  • An increase of liver enzyme activity.
    A high liver enzyme activity is a recognised indicator that there has been deterioration in the functioning of liver cells and possible development of disease in the liver.

More recent studies confirmed the findings that it is specifically coffee, but not other beverages containing caffeine, that may be the key factor in inhibiting the onset of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver.


In another large study, results showed that men who regularly drank two to three cups of coffee per day – filtered, instant or espresso - had about a 30-40% reduction in risk of gallstone disease.


For men who drank four cups per day, the reduction was even more significant – the risk was cut in half.


Other study results have demonstrated a similar positive effect in women.


We cannot live without a functioning liver – so here is some good news – that cup of coffee we all enjoy is not bad for us at all.


In moderation, drinking coffee not only helps increase our energy and alertness but may also be helping to keep our liver healthy.

Brown fat - New kid n the block !!!


Currently, the only safe way to activate brown fat is to stay cold , however, the only safe way to activate brown fat is to remain cold enough to be on the verge of shivering… for a long period of time.

This recreates the scenario that led to the evolution of brown fat: life-threatening cold in creatures that couldn’t put on clothes to stay warm.


It’s important to maintain a proper balance of brown fat in the body.

If you’re carrying too much or too little weight, not only are the calorie-burning benefits mostly negated, but you become more vulnerable to diseases such as Type 2 diabetes.

Generally, a lean form is most ideal to maintain the body’s energy balance, yet according to Brown, it is unclear whether brown fat is the cause of leanness or its result.
