    Although no scientific studies confirmed it, most people will tell you that it does - based on their own experiences.

    According to Aurametrix (analysis of observations from early access users), sodium, fat, spicy food and overeating are among the contributing factors. With more observations there will be more definite conclusions.

    Other usual acne suspects include dairy, caffeine, peanuts and sugar.
    • Thanks Irene, I was concerned about with two reasons, first I drink lots of hot water due to sinusitis & read in one of the Oral cancer study in Iran (not very much sured if it was Iran or other arabic country) it was found that particular community drinks very hot tea, which leads to Oral cancer among them.
      Second reason was whenever I discuss about it with my dr. friends they suggest that if you have frequent ulcers you should visit the doctor.
      But your reply is satisfactory allowing me not to bother about cancer. Thanks a lot again!
