The China study had a similar issue. It found a higher incidence of esophageal cancer in people who drank more hot tea but only in those who also drank alcohol every day or smoked. It is plausible that drinking hot beverages might raise esophageal cancer risk if combined with smoking or alcohol consumption. But the study did not find that hot tea alone had that effect.

[@demonpride1975]

see now that is a study i could understand. because we eat hot food on a daily basis. because they can't actually attribute throat cancer to just drinking hot beverages, because of so many factors.

[@tylerchambers6246]

Most studies are later invalidated. The vast majority. A single study or even a basket of them really doesn't mean much especially when it's not repeatedly confirmed over time in other studies.

[@Verticalblinds832]

Thank you for clarity/truth. Makes for a far less clickable video I guess.

[@vitriolicAmaranth]

That would clear up a lot. If for instance you're drinking something hot enough to inflame or even injure your esophagus, it's increasing the surface area that gets exposed to carcinogens from other sources. But exposure to heat and cold is itself actually a cancer treatment. Pretty much anything that could nearly kill an average person has a good shot at curing or at least controlling cancer, actually, whether it's getting a severe viral infection, being subjected to a battery of toxic chemicals (chemotherapy) or radiation (radiation therapy), or going between bathing in hot springs and freezing water, the adage "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is very true when it comes to dealing with cancer.

[@biancap1549]

Perhaps smoking and drinking alcohol desensitized the esophagus and mouth, so they were drinking hotter beverages that ended up scarring their esophageal tissue

I can't recall what website, but a teacher once showed us a website where they habe all kinds of information and due to the fact they have such a big sample size and stuff they actually found correlations that are technically good but when you just think about it a little bit they can not be true (lenght of hair & IQ for example. You don't become smarter when you cut your hair)

[@ZttackFrmBhind]

One thing that he didn't mention is that when your body has to replace cells there is always a chance of those new cells being cancerous (called a Replication Error). So it does logically follow that if you are drinking liquids which are hot enough to damage/ kill your esophageal cells, the frequent replacement of those cells could raise a person's chances of developing cancer. That being said, I also agree that he reported on it very well.

[@zvxcvxcz]

@@marithietbrink3352 Yes, this is why proper statistical testing corrects for the number of things tested. This is why GWAS studies use around 10^-8 as their significance threshold rather than 0.05.
