Book Reviews of Natural Therapy for Your Liver: Herbs and Other Natural Remedies for a Healthy Liver
Book Review: 4th leading cause ?
Summary: 2 Stars
I wondered about this statement describing this book, so I decided to do some reserch: "As liver disease has skyrocketed to the fourth leading cause of death in the United States".
First off, from what I read, liver disease has actually fallen in the U.S. since 1960 (which makes sense, as we live healthier and drink less).
Also, here are the top 10 causes of death in the U.S.: 1. heart disease (by far the biggest one, and totally dwarfs liver disease), 2. cancer, 3. "cerebrovascular", 4. Lung diseases, 5. Injuries from accidents, 6. diabetes, 7. Flu, 8. Alzheimers, 9. Nephrosis, 10. Septicemia.
Nowhere is liver disease found in the top 10, and it is also not skyrocketing. In short, false alarm. Also note that there is some research showing that coffee is very protective of the liver. So if you are concerned about liver health (for example, from alcohol), just drink 3 to 4 cups of coffee a day (unless there is some medical reason for you not to, etc.).
