Owen Young, an epidemiologist at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom, said: "I don't understand how coffee was included in the list of possible carcinogens in the first place. From the current reliable evidence, coffee does not increase the risk of cancer."

However, the International Agency for Research on Cancer stated that although drinking "room temperature coffee" will not increase the risk of cancer, drinking "overheated coffee" above 65 degrees Celsius will increase the risk of esophageal cancer. Not only hot coffee, drinking hot tea or other hot beverages above 65 degrees Celsius will increase the risk of esophageal cancer.

"It's not the drink, but the temperature," said Dana Loomis, an epidemiologist at the International Agency for Research on Cancer.

According to the researchers, some animal tests have shown that hot water between 65 degrees Celsius and 70 degrees Celsius increases the risk of mice suffering from esophageal cancer.

You who like coffee,

Especially those who like to drink "piping hot" coffee,

Be sure to pay attention!

Experts remind, drink hot coffee and hot drinks,

Too high temperature will cause mucosal damage,

If the mucosa is repeatedly destroyed, the esophageal cells may become cancerous.

The hot water just poured into the cup actually measured about 80℃,

Put it at normal room temperature, after a few minutes, the temperature will drop to 65℃,

As long as you don't feel "hot", the risk of cancer can be reduced.

 American Cancer Society 

ACS guidelines

Sure coffee can

Help people reduce the risk of certain cancers

But also remind everyone

"Drinking very hot coffee/drinks may cause cancer"

Very hot drinks are above 65°C!

Appropriate temperature below 65℃

I can also taste coffee

Especially the rich flavor in specialty coffee~

What kind of hot coffee should be paid special attention to?

From the cafe

①espresso espresso

The temperature in the cups of these three types is often above 80℃

When the waiter arrives in front of you

Wait 1-2 minutes before starting to drink

Latte and cappuccino because the temperature of the milk generally does not exceed 70 degrees

You can start drinking

And hand brewed specialty coffee

After a minute or two of hand punching

The temperature of the liquid coffee in the sharing pot is about 75 degrees

Then pour it into the middle of the cup to the front and it is about 65

You can sip the coffee after smelling the aroma

Drink from warm to room temperature

The flavor level of coffee brewed by good beans is also varied

Just Enjoy！

At the same time, I remind everyone of petty bourgeois and white-collar workers that women have a high probability of drinking coffee. Therefore, many expectant mothers are also coffee lovers. A few are coffee madmen. Whether they can drink coffee during pregnancy is a frequently asked question.

In fact, it is misrepresented on the Internet that pregnant women should not drink coffee. Coffee can be drunk, but it should not be overdose. Overdose will increase the risk of abortion.

What is the safe amount of coffee to drink? You can’t count the number of cups you drink, because cups have different sizes and coffee. According to research in the United States, when the amount of caffeine in coffee exceeds 200 mg every day, the abortion rate will double. The miscarriage rate does not increase when it does not exceed 200 mg per day.

Therefore, you can drink coffee after pregnancy, as long as the total amount of caffeine does not exceed 200 mg.
