一位加州法官要求在咖啡上贴上癌症警告标签。因此，我们认为应该看看与那杯咖啡相关的其他一些高度不可能的风险。 我们喜欢在 Risk Bites 喝上一杯好咖啡。因此，当我们发现加州法官威廉·勒·杰尼斯(William le Jeunesse)裁定咖啡可能致癌时，感到相当沮丧。根据65号提案，公司需要张贴警告标签。 这一裁决是基于丙烯酰胺的存在。丙烯酰胺是咖啡豆在烘焙过程中形成的一种化学物质，被国际癌症研究机构列为可能的致癌物。丙烯酰胺也存在于许多其他食物中，是在油炸食物时产生的。 问题是，加州的决定是基于危害而不是风险 - 它取决于这种物质对你的潜在伤害，而不是伤害发生的概率。所以，你很难知道是否会有星巴克迷倒在大街上(很可能不会 - 事实上，绝对不会!)，或者你中国家彩票的机会是否真的比喝糟糕的咖啡好一点点。 本着完全披露的精神，我们仍然是 Risk Bites 的狂热咖啡饮用者！ 有用链接 Coffee must carry cancer warning, California judge rules (Washington Post, March 29 2018) https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2018/03/29/coffee-must-carry-cancer-warning-california-judge-rules/ Science Says: What we know about cancer risk and coffee (AP): https://www.circa.com/story/2018/04/01/science/science-says-what-we-know-about-cancer-risk-and-coffee National Toxicology Program fact sheet on acrylamide: https://www.niehs.nih.gov/health/assets/docs_a_e/acrylamide_508.pdf 1994 IARC assessment of acrylamide: https://monographs.iarc.fr/ENG/Monographs/vol60/mono60-16.pdf 2016 IARC assessment of drinking coffee, maté, and very hot beverages: https://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2016/pdfs/pr244_E.pdf 鸣谢 非常感谢以下人士对咖啡危害的启发思考!

What are advanced materials, and are they safe? In this second video in the Risk Bites series on advanced materials, we look at the emergence of increasingly advanced materials over the 20th century, and the development of multi-scale materials design and engineering, from the nanoscale to the macro
Acetaminophen -- the active ingredient in Tylenol -- is bad news for your liver if you take too much of it. The same is true for alcohol. So should you avoid popping Tylenol to take the edge off the morning-after hangover? Probably yes -- although the biology behind how the two substances interac
