Esophageal cancer
Supplements studied for esophageal cancer.
Overview
Evidence is largely observational and low trust. Black Tea (DEX Score 36; very low effect size, medium evidence, medium trust) did not lower esophageal cancer risk; heavy intake may increase risk in some analyses. Green Tea (DEX Score 44; very low effect size, very high evidence, medium trust; 11 studies) shows mixed prevention results, with possible benefit in women in some cohorts but not from decaffeinated capsules.
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin A, and Multivitamin trials did not clearly reduce cancer risk despite some nutrient-deficiency associations. Very hot tea intake is linked to higher risk regardless of type. The heatmap and evidence reviews below cover all 11 supplements.
