Few people think about whether it is possible to drink cold coffee. The cold drink is made similar in composition to a cocktail.
It would be useful to learn about the impact such a cocktail can have on human health.
Nutritionist Lyudmila Nikityuk spoke about this in an interview with the Sport Express publication.
The harm of cold coffee
Firstly, cold drinks are harmful to the gastrointestinal tract.
It should be remembered that drinks whose temperature does not exceed 12 degrees Celsius cause blood vessels to constrict, and this impairs digestion.
As a result, you can expect constipation and dysbacteriosis.
You can soften the effects by drinking a glass of warm water after cold coffee.
Secondly, the composition of cold coffee is close to a milkshake.
There may be cream, chocolate, ice cream, syrups, sugar, and so on.
Along with all the flavor additives, the calorie content of the drink increases.
Blood sugar levels also rise, which causes a feeling of hunger, which can lead to overeating and weight problems.
Thirdly, cold drinks and the ice they contain are one of the reasons for the appearance of microcracks in tooth enamel, which in the future provokes caries.
