Don't know any stats from the top of my head, but I recall that oesophageal cancer is caused by drinking _hot_ tea, not by drinking tea per sé.

I usually cool my tea with a splash of milk. But I do then drink it very quickly at an elevated temperature.

#8I have a Partial Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency. It is a primary immunodeficiency. I cannot drink tea, and green tea is the wqrst for me since catechins (primarily EGCG) inhibits the PNP enzyme[1] as do quite a few other "healthy" foods like curcumin.
It is best to know yourself and if tea makes you feel worse it might not be good for you.

Avoid drinking liquids hotter than 140 f.
One interesting "test" - take a sip of the liquid, and it does not seem that hot, put your finger in your mouth with the liquid and your finger might feel too hot.

What’s the connection between beta alanine and tea? Is it just the caffeine in the tea that causes some effect when they’re used in combination?
