question
I heard that drinking ice water can upset your stomach. Is this true?
answer
Drinking ice water generally does not cause an upset stomach. In a study with cats that had stomach ulcers, irrigation of the stomach with warm water versus ice cold water did not make a difference in stomach irritation or influence the blood flow to the lining of the stomach. In another study with healthy adults, the influence of the temperature of ingested water on the stomach's movement of stool was evaluated. The time of food emptying from the stomach into the duodenum was faster when administered with cold water compared to warm water. This observation suggests that coated medicines which are inactivated by gastric fluid or irritate gastric mucosa are best administered with cold water. I have also observed clinically that drinking a glass or two of cold water first thing in the morning helps stimulate peristalsis and emptying of the bowels.
