Good News!

It turns out that all the drinking you've been doing isn't bad for your liver after all! Well, as long as you're drinking coffee to cure your hangover, you're alllll good.

The hell you say?

Well, scientists are now saying this: 

Coffee seems to protect the liver against cirrhosis, especially that caused by alcoholism. It's not clear, either for cancer or cirrhosis, whether it's coffee or caffeine that may be protective.

That is a direct quote from Sciene on the matter. 

So, if you're drinking a big Coke to cure that hangover, you might still be in the clear- but you've really only got a 50/50 chance. Is that a risk you're really willing to take?
