Coffee consumption reduces side-effects in people on hepatitis C treatment
More on coffee ... or in my case .. More Coffee ; )
Interesting study, however with only 106 subjects .. not conclusive ...
"Patients drinking three or more cups of coffee a day were 81% less likely to report discomforting side-effects than patients reporting none. The likelihood of reporting side-effects decreased by one-third (33%) between each category of coffee consumption (i.e. occasional drinkers had 33% fewer side-effects than non-drinkers, patients drinking one cup a day had 33% fewer than occasional drinkers, and so on."
"The researchers suggest further research into the benefits of coffee consumption and/or caffeine."

I couldnt stand the smell of coffee on incivek. Too bad.... But now in week 18 im able to drink some. That was the only time in my adult life I have gone without it.
I'm trying to drink coffee again. I alway grind beans fresh and use a french press. It's just so much to do and get fat grams and get to work. I do drink a couple of cups at work. Thanks for the reminder.. Karen
