✗ The myth everyone repeats
Drinking cold water with food clogs your digestion and prevents nutrient absorption.
✓ What is actually true
Temperature of consumed water has minimal impact on digestion. The stomach maintains constant temperature regardless of what you drink. Cold water may temporarily cause slight constriction of blood vessels, but this doesn't impede digestion. Traditional medicine claims about cold water interfering with fat digestion lack scientific support.
