COLD WATER

[sofarsogood]

For those who like to drink cold water, please read this article .
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

It's COMMON SENSE. We all should know that drinking cold water after a meal is unhealty. It's like setting a bowl of oil outside in the winter and one in the summer. SEE THE DIFFERENCE! Especially for us women, cause we have our period every month.

And where did you get this information from? It'll REALLY STUPID to just agree with everything you read online, especially an anonymous post like this. Cancer?? Come on, get serious people!! This person ain't a practicing doctor. Drinking cold water ain't going lead to cancer!

First off, if cold things makes female bodies unhealthy than what about all those people who live in cold climates? Shouldn't all the women in those places die-off by now? I think some people just want to manipulate people into not eating cold things so that when summer comes along, men can have all the ice cream and cold drinks they want and let the women dehydrate in the burning sun under global warming!
Plus, women are advised to eat warm things when they're pregnant and menstruating, not when they aren't. It's perfectly normal and Healthy to eat cold things.

All women need to go take a Women Biology course when they in college.

Here you go, PLEASE READ.


Our bodies do not expend calories when absorbing cold water. In order for water to hydrate the body, it need not be at room temperature, or even at the same temperature as our bodies'. As a matter of fact, the American College of Sports Medicine's Position Stand on Exercise and Fluid Replacement states that fluid needs to be cooler than ambient temperature, meaning between 59 – 72°F. Colder fluids leave the stomach more quickly than warmer ones, allowing faster rehydration. During hot weather, when we tend to lose extra fluids, beverages in this temperature range will have a cooling effect on the body. Drinking cool beverages can help to cool us from the inside.

Also, there's no need to worry: cold foods and beverages do not harm any of our internal organs, so we can feel free to enjoy them.

By the way, sweating is another way to help bring down our body temperature. During exercise, our core body temperature rises as the intensity of our workout increases. This rise in temperature initiates a process that causes us to sweat. The heat that's generated is carried through our blood to just under the skin, where sweat glands are activated, releasing fluid (a.k.a. sweat). It's the evaporation of sweat that's cooling.
