I had the opportunity to work as a physician in the ministry of health of Iran for a considerable time. I had the practical experience to see Iranians consuming exceess hot tea.at the same time the incidence of oesophageal carcinoma i saw was aso more.So this might have some interrelation for the pathogenesis of this disease.

As a singer I can agree with the fact that drinking very hot tea will damage your voice.
Spill some of the tea that you drink onto your wrist,(on the inside) and feel what it does to your throat!
For some reason you don’t feel the pain when you drink,but feel the effect on your skin outside. WOW!

Interesting! What effect does tea and coffee and chocalates have on blood pressure? What are the good things (effects) from drinking tea, coffee and eating chocalates? Seems anything that is “TOO”, is not good? Thanks for all the emails and info. God bless.

We recently moved from the US to Ireland, and I can tell you they Love their tea Piping hot here. When you’re out somewhere, if there’s not thick steam rising from your cup, they take it away and get you a new one…with the tea almost boiling in your cup. There was one place that I didn’t think I’d ever get to hold on to my cup long enough to be able to drink my tea!

I’d like to see some numbers regarding throat cancer statistics here and in the UK.

I’ve been drinking very hot coffee and tea for 50 years. Guess I need to make a quick change.
