The World Health Organization’s research arm has downgraded its classification of coffee as a possible carcinogen, declaring there isn’t enough proof to show a link to cancer.
But the International Agency for Research on Cancer, or IARC, also announced in a report published on Wednesday that drinking “very hot” beverages of any kind could potentially raise the cancer risk.
In particular, it cited countries including China, Iran and those in South America, where teas such as the bitter herbal infusion mate are traditionally drunk at extremely high temperatures — above 65 or 70 degrees Celsius (150 or 160 Fahrenheit) — considerably hotter than drinks would normally be served in cafes across North America and Europe.
Experts convened by the Lyon-based IARC concluded that there was inadequate evidence to suggest coffee might cause cancer, according to a letter published in the Lancet Oncology.
“I’m not really sure why coffee was in a higher category in the first place,” said Owen Yang, an epidemiologist at Oxford University who has previously studied the possible link between coffee and cancer. He was not part of the IARC expert group. “The best evidence available suggests that coffee does not raise the cancer risk,” he said.
Drinking very hot beverages, however, just might.
Dana Loomis, deputy head of the IARC program that classifies carcinogens, said they began to look into a possible link after seeing unusually high rates of esophageal cancer in countries where drinking very hot beverages is common. He said that even at temperatures below 60 degrees Celsius (140 Fahrenheit), hot beverages can scald the skin, and that consuming drinks at even higher temperatures could be harmful.
Loomis said very hot beverages might cause a “thermal injury” in the throat that could eventually promote the growth of tumors, but that evidence was limited. He said there wasn’t enough evidence to suggest if eating very hot food might also be risky.
Other experts said that people should remain focused on the leading causes of cancers including of the esophagus and that there were more important changes they could make other than waiting for their drinks to cool.
“Quitting smoking and reducing alcohol consumption are much more significant for reducing cancer risk than the temperature of what you’re drinking,” said Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society. Brawley said the cancer risk posed by drinking hot beverages was similar to that posed by eating pickled vegetables.
Still, he welcomed the news that coffee would no longer be deemed a possible carcinogen.
“As a heavy coffee drinker, I have always enjoyed my coffee guilt-free,” he said. “But now there is scientific evidence to justify that.”

Eines ist gewiss beides muss etwas Ziehen .
Es ist sicher Sarkastisch zu sagen , das Kaffee ziehen muss bzw.Tee
aber es braucht seine Zeit bis der Genuss vorhanden ist im vollen Geschmack.
Tee ohne Zucker hat nicht den besten Geschmack bei Kaffee ist es wiederum
eine Frage des Menschlichen Individuum zu dem Geschmack.
Krebs ist bitter in der Menschlichen Anatomie ,wie bekannt ist Krebs eine
Krankheit die sich Ausbreitet im Körper und nicht immer gut ist ,nein Sie
kann auch bösartig sein und von daher zum Tod Führen .
Nun ist in der Evolution des Menschlichen Geistes des Fortschritts von Zellen ,
so manches Bekannt geworden .

Mögliche Hinweise :
Milch ,Fleisch , Getreide , DNA , Antipocken Kulturen , nun auch Kaffee und
Tee aber da Waren noch Gamma Strahlen und UV Beständigkeit .
Nun stamme ich Gott sei Dank von einem Primaten ab also einer Lebensform
oder Individuum das ,sich Entwickeln kann in einer Stufe des Lernprozesses,
also man könnte auch sagen man kann eine Intelligenz Entwickeln , Logisch
oder Unlogisch zu seinem Verhalten in der Evolution der Entwicklung des
Körpers in der Erkenntnis des Primaten Mensch . Also ich wollte hier nur
Feststellen nicht ich war es der dies Heraus fand ,nein es gab eine
Übertragung des Menschlichen Verstandes zu meinen Lernprozess .
Man fand auch Heraus das Intelligenz nicht angeboren ist und das man diese
in IQ Faktoren messen kann auf einer Skala (0 ;1-100 und oder mehr 100) .
Ich liege nach meiner Einschätzung wenn ich mal mag in etwa 3-30? kann
sein oder im IQ.
Thema Verfehlt wir waren bei Kaffee und Tee und einer Ernsten
Angelegenheit aber dennoch sollte viele Dinge in Betracht ziehen, Vorsorge
ist auch Fürsorge … oder die Intelligenz Schlimmeres in der Struktur der
