Water is an integral part of our lives, and its quality directly affects our health and well-being.
One of the pressing issues related to water consumption concerns its temperature.
Many people are genuinely surprised by the fact that warm water quenches thirst better than cold water. Let's look into the reasons for this strange, at first glance, "phenomenon".
In fact, there is only one reason, and it is that warm water is absorbed better.
But you shouldn’t blindly follow this fact: your choice – to drink warm or cold water – depends on the purpose for which you consume the liquid.
A distinction should be made between psychological and physiological thirst.
For example, workers who work in hot workshops drink warm salted water to restore the water-salt balance.
At the same time, no one will argue that well water with a temperature of 12-13 degrees is refreshing and pleasant to taste.
From a psychological point of view, it is preferable to quench your thirst with cool water.
In addition, when cold water enters the body, it heats up, and some of the heat, which we have in excess in the heat, is absorbed by the water.
