Study Links Hot Drinks, Cancer
A new study is about hot drinks. Scientists in Britain studied many people for ten years. People who drink very hot tea get cancer more often.
A drink is very hot at 65 degrees. Hot drinks can hurt the food pipe. Tea from a hot kettle is very hot. Milk does not make it much cooler.
Doctors say people must wait for the drink to cool. Then it is safer. This can stop some cancer. But scientists need to do more work.
