Are there any health concerns with waxed lined paper cups?

Beware of Paper Cups in Your Pantry hoax : Analysis: It is a fact that for insulation and durability, paper cup manufacturers spray both the inside and outside of the cup with very thin layer of wax material like polyethylene and paraffin. But they have definite standards to follow while manufacturing these disposable paper cups. This ensures that paper cups do not become toxic when soaked in water or hot liquids. Read the reference section for standard guidelines in preparation of paper cups. However, some unscrupulous traders and small workshop manufacturers do not follow these guidelines. In order to reduce the cost of paper cups production, they can use industrial wax and harmful waste plastic, which again may not meet the standards of manufacturing. And so, use of these paper cups can definitely effect your health in long run. The wax material in low quality disposable paper cups can indeed melt and get into your digestive tract. In long run, this can lead to gastrointestinal disorders and few other health issues. Read the health hazards of such paper cups in the reference section. Note that styrofoam cups can as well be dangerous to health.
