Simple mistake when drinking tea or coffee could be increasing your risk of cancer

Researchers warn that consuming tea or coffee at very high temperatures may increase the risk of cancer. A major UK study indicates that drinks consumed at approximately 60C can damage the cells lining the oesophagus, potentially contributing to the development of cancer in the food pipe. Experts advise individuals to let their beverages cool down to a warm temperature before drinking to mitigate these risks and protect the lining of the oesophageal tract.
