WONOGIRI, JOGLOSEMARNEWS.COM – Hot weather often makes us want to quickly cool off with a cool drink, and ice is often a popular choice.
However, there are several questions that often arise, is it safe to consume ice in hot weather? Let’s find out.
1. Digestive Health
Consumption of ice in moderation is usually safe for healthy people with normal digestive systems. However, for people with certain sensitivities, such as gastric disorders or other digestive problems, it may be better to avoid excessive consumption.
2. Feeling Hot
Consuming ice in hot weather can have a temporary effect on relieving the feeling of overheating. Ice can help lower body temperature and provide a refreshing sensation of coolness.
3. Dehydration
It is important to remember that consuming ice is not a substitute for proper hydration. Cold drinks may quench thirst, but may not be helpful in replacing fluids lost through dehydration. Make sure to keep drinking enough water to keep your body hydrated.
4. Tooth Sensitivity
For some people with tooth sensitivity, consuming ice too often or in large quantities can cause discomfort or pain in the teeth. If you have tooth sensitivity problems, you should limit your consumption of ice or choose less consumption.
5. Cleanliness
Make sure the ice consumed comes from a clean and safe source. Avoid ice made from water that is of doubtful cleanliness.
In conclusion, consuming moderate amounts of ice during hot weather is usually safe for most healthy people. However, pay attention to personal digestive health and make sure to maintain hydration by drinking enough water.
Don’t forget, always pay attention to the cleanliness of the source of ice you consume. Aris Arianto
