Hot Cold
Hot Cold
Which is more beneficial to your body - drinking hot or cold water?
I've heard that hot water cleanses and aids your digestive system - surely something we all want.
But another thing we all want is to burn more calories - and I've also heard that we burn calories by heating the cold water once it's in our bodies.
Are either of these "Facts" true? Or is one more beneficial than the other?
I'm currently on a lose-weight plan, and although this hot/cold water argument isn't going to rid me of those extra kilograms, I'd like to know which is going to be more beneficial to me.
Where is the proof hot water cleanses your digestive system? I personally think that is rubbish; you need an element of bacteria in your gut to aid digestion. Besides, hot water only cleanses bad bacteria at 60 - 65ºC - try drinking water that hot and you will be in hospital.
Conversely, drinking cold water when you are very hot after exercise can cause stomach chills and that isn't great.
Drinking water does not help burn calories. As a fuel, it contains practically nil calories and it is the muscles with certain minerals and enzymes that burn food into energy. Water is needed to hydrate the body, NOT to burn calories into energy.
When people are trying to lose weight, they drink a lot of water because it causes a sensation of being 'full'.
