Have you finished your coffee or tea before the rest starts? Perhaps you should try to break that habit.
Research by the United Nations Cancer Agency shows that hot drinks warmer than 65 degrees may increase the risk of esophageal cancer. A spokesperson for the World Health Organization says that the conclusions are based on too small a study and that more research is needed.
Still, it gives food for thought. Do you have a steely throat or do you often forget that you have poured tea or coffee and do you drink it lukewarm? Perhaps the latter is a smart move for your health.
