Many of us cannot imagine a day without a cup warming tea. However, this passion has negative consequences. Turkish gastroenterologist Vedat Geral told journalists about them.

According to him, the love of hot tea (if its temperature exceeds 65 degrees) can end in the development of oncological diseases of the esophagus.

The specialist noted that such diseases are more common among residents of countries known for their love for this drink. We are talking about Turkey, Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries.

The risk of developing cancer increases if the consumption of hot tea is combined with such bad habits as smoking and alcohol.

Vedat Geral emphasized that the temperature of the tea should be moderate, and you should not drink more than three cups of this drink a day.
