Is drinking cold water has any bad effects?

drinking water is very good for health. but drinking too cold water may affect our throat and we may get cold.

Taking moderate cold water is okay. Excessive cold water from fridge and icy water may give you sore throat, cold and cough. The cold water has same component as normal. So, it will not add to fat.

I haven't heard that too cold water adds ft to body... but it has bad effects on body...
1. It irritates the throat and causes cold and cough.
2. Extreme cold or hot items would damage the enamel on the teeth and damages them.

I also hadn't heard fat content.But I think the internal temperature balance will alter suddenly by this act.

I don't know about fat. But drinking cold water harms throat. So try to avoid it.

Now I am suffering from the throat problem due to drinking of a icy juice.

Cold water also affects your memory cells adversely. Avoid it especially in summers.

But in summer only people are more tempted to drink cold water because of the heat. It is difficult for me to avoid it :(

I think it depends on the individual.If a person is susceptible to cough and cold,he or she is better advised to keep away from it.

Good Night to all of you and hope to see you tomorrow!

Ayurveda has advised against the excessive use of cold water, it is retained in the body by cells and may result in swelling hence it is advisable to use only lukewarm water for drinking. in hot weather use of water cooled in earthern pots is not harmful!

I think lukewarm water is best to drink. Do not drink more cold water. Its not good for health.

It is once again the question of exercising moderation keeping the sensitivity of our bodies in mind.

i think cold water is not good for our health, for some its okay...

Dear Friend,

Well drinking cold water has no effect on your body. It is equally well as a normal water.

There is nothing like if we drink cold water ,we will become fat. Its just affects our throat if we drink too cold water.

Drinking cold water is certainly not good . Cold water often attracts fever and cold . But about getting fat from cold water I don't think it is true .

Cold urticaria is a form of chronic hives caused by exposure to cold environments, cold food and drinks, and contact with cold water.

yes drinking cold water is harmful for brain cells, your tooth gums and also it creates problem in digestion of food if taken just after having food.
