Risks
Drinking hot water will not cure any diseases but, as long as the water is not scalding, the risks are minimal.
The primary risk of drinking hot water is one of being burned. Water that feels pleasantly warm on the tip of a finger may still burn the tongue or throat. A person should avoid consuming water that is near boiling temperature, and they should always test a small sip before taking a gulp.
Drinking caffeinated coffee or tea may cause a person to become overcaffeinated or jittery.
