Nearly one million UK adults were studied for drink temperature habits and cancer risk.
The findings link very hot coffee and tea to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
The study says beverages at 65 degrees Celsius or higher were associated with about a threefold higher risk.
Researchers and experts said the result shows association rather than causation.
Experts also said the absolute cancer risk remains low.
Letting hot drinks cool was described as a simple precaution.
A quick read on shared facts, changing details, and different emphasis.
Across the reporting, the study is described as linking very hot drinks with a higher risk of esophageal cancer, especially esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The coverage also agrees that the evidence shows an association, not direct proof of cause and effect.
What the study cannot settle is whether the drink temperature itself causes the cancer risk increase. The reporting also leaves room for further clarification on how the findings apply beyond the studied group and drinking habits.

Neutral coverage emphasizes that very hot beverages are linked to a higher risk of esophageal cancer in a large UK study. It notes the research was based on nearly one million participants and focused on drink temperature preferences and consumption habits. The summaries consistently caution that the study finds an association rather than proving causation. They also mention that letting beverages cool is a simple precaution and that the absolute risk remains low.

A new study of nearly one million people in the United Kingdom suggests that drinking very hot coffee and tea can triple the risk of developing esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Researchers from the University of Oxford analyzed data from participants regarding their drink temperature preferences and consumption habits. While the findings establish an association rather than direct causation, experts note that letting beverages cool is a simple preventive step.
A large study of nearly a million people in the UK indicates that drinking scalding hot tea and coffee is associated with a significantly higher risk of esophageal cancer. The research, published in the International Journal of Cancer, found that consuming very hot beverages triples the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Researchers and independent experts noted that the study identifies a robust association rather than ultimate causal proof, while absolute cancer risk remains low.
A study involving nearly a million UK adults has linked regularly drinking very hot tea or coffee to an increased risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Researchers found that individuals consuming beverages at 65 degrees Celsius or higher faced about a threefold higher risk compared to those drinking them warm. Experts emphasize that while relative risk increases, the absolute risk remains low and the study shows an association rather than direct causation.
A study tracking nearly a million participants in the UK suggests that drinking very hot coffee and tea can triple the risk of esophageal cancer. Conducted by researchers at the University of Oxford, the study focuses on esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and its link to drink temperatures exceeding 65 degrees Celsius. Experts caution that the findings demonstrate an association rather than direct causation, and advise letting hot drinks cool down as a precaution.
