Is drinking cold water bad for you?
ADVERTISEMENT
I have read a couple of things that say Drinking cold water constricts your organs slowing digestion. I have always herd that cold water is better for you especially during the summer months. I know there was a bogus article floating around about dogs getting sick from drinking cold water and this seems to be along the same lines. Any inputs on this?
Hi Joshua,
cold water does not stay cold for long once in the body unless you try to drink a lot of it at one time.
There are some schools of thought that advocate water at room temperature, others suggest to drink cold water because your body needs to use energy to warm it up.
