Potential role of Natural Herbal Tea as a healthy beverage in redu-cing the risk of liver cancer and chronic liver disease mortality

Emerging epidemiological findings indicate a rising in-cidence of primary liver cancer,now a foremost contributor to cancer-related mortalities worldwide[1].Several factors play a pivotal role in liver cancer etiology,including infec-tions from the Hepatitis B/C virus,a spectrum of liver dis-eases like alcoholic and nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases(NAFLD,ASH,and NASH),metabolic aberrations(e.g.,obesity,diabetes),exposure to hepatocarcinogens(e.g.,aflatoxin,aristolochic acid,and iron overload),and disrup-tions in gut microbiota.Chronic liver diseases,encompassing conditions such as NAFLD and NASH,represent hepatic ex-pressions of metabolic syndrome and bear the potential to culminate in liver cancer.
