For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. 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. |
I don't get this. You're saying that cold water solidifies oily stuff INSIDE your body? But doesn't your body temperature naturally warm up the water once you ingest it?? |

| funny about that whole cold water thing.... cuz my mom would always mention that. in chinese medicine and practices, they all strongly advise never to drink cold liquids with meals and even drinking them normally is not a good thing. i guess we had the right idea all along. |

I am not sure if that is meant to be rude...but I feel I need to put it out there that I am an athlete and played sports all through HS and was an addict to the gym in college but real life and the real world go in the way of me going. I am aware of the "addictiveness" of working out. Trust I am sure I had some of you beat back in college when I was going 4 times a week to swim, run and lift weights. Again sorry if it wasn't meant as mean it just seems to me like people are treating the ones that ask for help as workout idiots and that just isn't the case....end rant/ |

it absolutely wasn't meant to be rude. It was more of a supportive comment, sort of a "way to go" type comment for taking the first step. In other words, i was saying congrats on making the effort, now that the hard part is over, it will get easier. You get my drift?
I try to be a little creative in my comments. saying congrats gets boring. |
