As summer comes, the temperature gradually rises. Many people will drink iced drinks in the hot summer, which also prompts many people to have stomach pain in summer. So how to drink cold drinks correctly and healthy?
Drinking too much cold drink in summer will actually cause harm to our body. The temperature of ice drinks is much lower than the temperature of our body. Drinking a large amount of cold drinks in the hot summer will cause our stomach to be stimulated, causing strong contraction of our blood vessels in the stomach, and may cause our digestive system to be harmed to a certain extent.
Choose the right time to drink ice drinks. It is best not to drink ice drinks in the morning. If we drink a lot of cold drinks in the morning, the blood circulation in our body will slow down. Because when we get up in the morning, our bodies are still in a low body temperature, so at this time we need some warm food and drinks.
Don't drink cold drinks after strenuous exercise. After the severe exercise, the body temperature will rise and the throat is congested. At this time, if the gastrointestinal and pharynx is stimulated by cold drinks, you will have abdominal pain, diarrhea or sore throat, and other diseases.
The elderly should drink less cold drinks. The digestive function of the elderly has been significantly reduced, and the tolerance for cold drinks has also been greatly reduced. If the elderly eat too much cold drink, it will not only cause gastrointestinal digestive disorders, but also induce more serious diseases. For those elderly people with cardiovascular disease, they may cause the stomach to be uncomfortable after drinking ice drinks, and they may cause angina pectoris, so the elderly group should keep the distance from cold drinks.
Cold drink hot drinks should not be consumed alternately. After drinking a cup of cold drinks in life, some people will immediately drink a cup of hot coffee, hot milk, etc. Under such stimuli, it is easy to hurt the teeth. Drinking cold drinks and hot drinks together will also affect the stomach and intestines, and it is easy to cause dyspepsia.
In our daily life, the temperature of the drinks we drink is appropriate when it is between 4 ° C and 18 ° C. In the hot summer, we can put boiled water or drinks in the refrigerator for about half an hour to drink. When we take out the cold drink from the refrigerator, we must also put it for a while, and then drink it until the cold drink thaw.
How to drink cold drinks is healthier? You need to achieve the following three points.
1. Drink cold drinks at a suitable time. Cold drinks are not suitable for drinking during an empty stomach. It is generally better to drink after 30 minutes after eating.
2. Moderate amount. The intake of cold drinks should not be too much. It is advisable to drink about 150 ml each time.
3. Drink slowly. Drinking cold drinks should not be too fast. We must taste carefully when drinking cold drinks. This is also good for our body, which can reduce the damage of cold drinks to the stomach. Especially when we eat some ice cubes, we should pay more attention to waiting for ice cubes to melt and then swallow it, so that the stimulation of low temperature to our cerebral blood vessels will also decrease.
