My first cup was hazelnut flavoured.  This one is chocolate cream.  I usually don't like chocolate and coffee, but it's quite nice.

Just some good old-fashioned black coffee.

If I would add a flavour, it would be either cinnamon or cardamom. Sometimes add a pinch of salt or cocoa as a flavour enhancer. It brings out the flavour of the coffee even more.

Time to make myself some coffee and get my arse moving. Morning break has lasted long enough. Was up at 5:30, and took a break on the internet at 7:15, so that lasted over an hour by now.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:

Liver cirrhosis is a large burden on global health, causing over one million deaths per year. Observational studies have reported an inverse association between coffee and cirrhosis.

AIMS:

To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to characterise the relationship between coffee consumption and cirrhosis.

METHODS:

We searched for studies published until July 2015 that reported odds ratios, relative risks (RR) or hazard ratios for cirrhosis stratified by coffee consumption. We calculated RRs of cirrhosis for an increase in daily coffee consumption of two cups for each study and overall. We performed analyses by study design, type of cirrhosis and mortality. We assessed the risk of bias in each study and the overall quality of evidence for the effect of coffee on cirrhosis.

RESULTS:

We identified five cohort studies and four case-control studies involving 1990 cases and 432 133 participants. We observed a dose-response in most studies and overall. The pooled RR of cirrhosis for a daily increase in coffee consumption of two cups was 0.56 (95% CI 0.44-0.68; I(2) 83.3%). The RR pooled from cohort studies for a daily increase of two cups was 0.58 (95% CI 0.41-0.76; I(2) 91.1%) and from case-control studies it was 0.52 (95% CI 0.40-0.63; I(2) 0.0%). The pooled RR of alcoholic cirrhosis for a daily increase of two cups was 0.62 (95% CI 0.51-0.73; I(2) 0%) and of death from cirrhosis it was 0.55 (95% CI 0.35-0.74; I(2) 90.3%).

CONCLUSION:

This meta-analysis suggests that increasing coffee consumption may substantially reduce the risk of cirrhosis.
