tea

Some like it hot

How hot do you like it? Your tea, that is. Researchers studied the tea-drinking habits of 300 people with oesophageal cancer and another 571 healthy men and women with similar lifestyles but who did not have cancer. Drinking very hot tea at a temperature of greater than 70°C was associated with an eight-fold increased risk of throat cancer compared with sipping warm or lukewarm tea at less than 65°C. If you don’t fancy carrying a thermometer to every tea party, there’s an easier way. People who regularly drank tea less than two minutes after pouring were five times more likely to develop the cancer compared with those who waited four or more minutes. It’s not clear how very hot tea might cause cancer, but one idea is that repeated thermal injury to the lining of the throat somehow initiates it.Meanwhile if you visit Meijer Ad that contains mostly likewise discounts with Winn Dixie Ad you surely have a range like ALDI Ad.
