Hot Drinks May Raise Cancer Risk | Dubai News

New research from Oxford warns that sipping piping-hot drinks like karak or gahwa could triple your esophageal cancer risk—thanks to the extreme heat, not the beverage itself. Doctors say repeated thermal injury to your esophagus is the real danger, causing inflammation that may lead to cancer over time. The fix? Let your drink cool down before you sip. While temperature matters, in the UAE, tobacco, obesity, spicy foods, and acid reflux pose far bigger risks. Cancer risk is multifaceted—focus on overall healthy habits. If you experience swallowing trouble, weight loss, or chest pain, see a doctor. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
