The Dangers Of Drinking Iced Water

Share

Learn why drinking this water could actually be dangerous for you. Check out the article we found over at Family Health Freedom Network.

Not many people understand why warm water is far better than ice cold. Hopefully, this article will help you see things better.

But, first, try this:

Close your eyes and imagine yourself being on a wooden dock that extends into a mountain lake. Sun is shining, birds are singing. Spring is awesome. The top layer of the lake has just melted. You decide to dive in the lake.

Now, how does your body react? Are you relaxed or constricted?

If by any chance you did not know it, warm water loosens skin and opens pores, and cold water constricts it and closes pores. The same happens to your digestive tract when you drink ice cold water.

What does cold water do to your body?

— Cold drinks restrict digestion, shrinks blood vessels and hinders hydration.

— When drinking cold drinks while eating food, cold temperature solidifies fat from the food you eat and your body cannot digest undesired fats from the body properly.

Why is warm water better for you?

  • Stimulates digestive enzymes and enhances digestion
  • Hydrates tissues faster
  • Improves better bowel movement. Try warm lemon water in the morning
  • Your body breaks down food more efficiently
  • Boosts natural detoxification in your body and cleanses blood via kidneys, skin and lymphatic system

Once you decide to go for warm water or water at room temperature, you will experience better digestion and your body will feel much lighter after or during meals. Some people claim that drinking warm water has reduced their sugar cravings.

    Interesting, I was always told, read that cold water is negative calories, due to the body working to warm it up . it’s not still cold leaving the stomach.

    Your body burns more calories when it is cold or cooling, so drinking room temperature or warmer is better for you and will keep you cooler in the summer since your body temperature has to lower itself to digest anything warm; like when you feel cold after eating; and this is the same reason Europe has “tea time” to drink a hot beverage before the warmest part of the day.
