For those who drink cold drinks after a meal.

I drink before, during and after...

Wow, how moronic.Originally posted by davidche:Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. -
now thats a pile of scientific bs right there. true, it may be better to drink a hot drink, but definitely not for the reasons stated there. off the top of my head,
-cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed
unlikely to be cold enough. as said above, the cold drinks that you drink are more than likely to reach your body temperature by the time they reach the small intestine. (by the time above said oily food gets to your intestine, hours have passed. by that time, any "solidified fat" would be warm again...)
"sludge react with acid"
-lipids are not broken down in the stomach, which is the only place within the alimentary canal that secrets acids... so it would not slow down digestion in this way...
"breakdown and be absorbed by the intestine faster"
so one moment it is real slow, one minute it is fast? as said above, once the pyloric sphincter opens up, everything that goes through is chyme, due to the acids, whether or not they were "solidified due to cold" already. more important is the bile which emulsifies the fats...
"Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer"
erm, oily stuff ARE fats. the environment in the small intestine is just too active for anything majorly large to stagnate there... and its really quite hard for so many fats to get stuck amongst the villi.
and you say that it "will be absorbed by intestine faster than solid food"? why would this cause any real problems? fyi, there would not be much variation in the food entering the small intestine...
furthermore, link between this and cancer is quite impossible to establish. there is no scientific basis. in the first place, one would have to eat alot of oily food and drink alot of cold drinks (loaded with sugars in the first place) for this to have such a big effect. if one has such a lifestyle, adverse health problems are much much more likely to occur due to such lifestyle habits rather than the cold drink effect, if any, in itself.
and erm, ur stuff about heart failure is unrelated. heh. thank you for informing us this anyway... you have good intentions, but do check up more on your info... -
*erm, oily stuff ARE fats. the environment in the small intestine is just too active for anything majorly large to stagnate there... and its really quite hard for so many fats to get stuck amongst the villi.
mean to say that oil is fat. and also, our small intestines are more than well equipped to deal with digesting fat... you don't see fat coming out of your crap do you? -
Thx for the info. Now I will drink hot Milo after I finish my pre-dawn meal and drink warm ones instead.

It is not good in a long run to always consume cold gaseous and sold drinks. ANyway our body temperature should be enough to keep the cold drinks warmed up as it enters our body. sweeten hot drinks won't do any good either.
Take my advice. eat and enjoy your meal slowly. don't talk while you eat. your food should digest faster and you create a less nuisance to others who really need to enjoy a peaceful and quiet meal.
drink cool (not cold) pay gun juee best lah

It's healthier not being paranoid over what you eat and drink daily. Just take life as it is, and how you want it to be.

good information
-
This explanation makes a lot sense. Hot or cold, the sensation is at your tongue/mouth. Too hot you will throw out, too cold it is not possible to drink or eat!Originally posted by enadiz:now thats a pile of scientific bs right there. true, it may be better to drink a hot drink, but definitely not for the reasons stated there. off the top of my head,

Everything that goes into the stomach is mixed and churned - hot, cold, solid, liquid, fat, sugar, starch, protein, etc. The breakdown, absorption and rejection is done by the alimentary canal - that is elementary biology!!!
Moral of story: don't just believe blindly whether it is food or god! -
its a hoax you goons
-
solidify fats ? sludge reacting with acid ?
it's so apparent that its fake. -
yayaya, we all know - its chain letter. But good biology lesson, rite?Originally posted by JJxJJ:its a hoax you goons -
crocodile meat will cause cancer, so u all better dun eat it hor
