For those of us who like to drink and aren't looking to currently cut back, what are some foods, vitamins, or non-alcoholic beverages you can eat/ take/ drink in order to help prevent damage to your kidneys or liver?

Some studies have suggested coffee, while it may not sober you up, is good for helping to sure up your liver.

What has happened to /ck/ lately with all of these normie straightedge people.

And actually live problems happen in 1/10 of heavy drinkers. IT's a risk but it's a common misconception to think everyone who enjoys drinking is going to have liver problems.

You have no idea how many people in your life are hiding their drinking because of straightedge thinkers like you.

That's literally the only thing that helps, though. The liver is very regenerative, it just needs a chance to you know, regenerate. Just slow down, you don't need to kill a bottle every night, just enjoy a nice beer or two.

Mashed potatoes seem to do something good. What do you think?

As a recovering alcoholic, nothing. Milk thistle, vitamin b, it's all bullshit.
Quit while you're ahead, dying of alcoholism is not a fun way to go.

Up to a point and unfortunately that point is different for everyone. Some booze bags live to old age, some get cirrhosis only after a couple years of heavy drinking.

I drink lots of vodka. That cleans out my system, and even cleans my teeth (I haven’t brushed in years, and haven’t had a cavity since).

I also eat a liverwurst sandwich pretty much every day – to counterbalance the effects the vodka has on my liver. I make my sandwiches on seeded rye (because it’s the healthiest bread), with mayo (because eggs are the best protein; I use kewpie, because the msg makes it taste better), coarse mustard (good for the white blood cells), zucchini pickles (because they taste good), and a bunch of baby spinach (just for filler; it could honestly be left out).

I also eat a lot of canned fish (mostly sardines, but also the occasional fancy smoked oysters) on saltines. They give you all your essential amino acids, and provide a nice opportunity to try out various hot sauces, which are generally very low in calories, while high in flavor and immensely prodigious to healthiness.

Aside from that, I drink large amounts of water (anywhere between ice-cold to slightly chilled) every day, always through a straw, and sometimes with a lemon wedge.

To each their own, I say, but I’m just shy of 30 and am doing better than most of you.

Eating liver and coffee helps. And avocados.
