🚨COLD WATER RAISES BLOOD PRESSURE:
The first study (Jianyong et al., 2014) looked at the effects of drinking cold water on blood pressure in healthy young students. This study included 44 normotensive college students.
They conclude by stating that the systolic and diastolic blood pressure increase induced by drinking water, especially cold water, should be considered in the diagnosis and management of hypertension.
❌COLD WATER MAY HURT YOUR DIGESTION:
The next study (Xiu et al., 2006) looked at the Visceral hypersensitivity following cold water intake in subjects with IBS.
Cold water intake might cause EC cells to secrete serotonin (5HT). By initiating peristaltic, secretory, vasodilatory, vagal, and nociceptive reflexes, 5-HT directly and indirectly affects gastrointestinal sensation and motor and secretory function, hence causing symptoms in IBS patients.
💥TAKEAWAY:
For some people, cold water can have a negative effect. For others, no dramas. Hopefully some of you can relate to this in some way. Remember, warm water prior to meals is always better for digestion.
