Message: <blockquote data-quote="Fox C2" data-source="post: 13727326" data-attributes="member: 370633"> MYTH:  Drinking cold water after meals can cause cancer.      Answer: Busted!As  the myth goes, drinking cold water after meals will cause the oils and  fats that you have just consumed to become solid. This "sludge" is  supposed to react with the acid in your digestive system, line the  intestines, turn into fat, and cause cancer.This myth is busted  on several accounts, starting with the entire premise that drinking cold  water will turn oil into solid sludge. Our internal body temperature is  a steamy 98.1 degrees, and it typically takes 2 to 3 hours for a meal  to empty from the stomach and move into the small intestines. This is  plenty of time for all of the liquids and solids in your stomach to  become the same warm temperature. Additionally, during these 2 to 3  hours of digestion, the stomach mixes and churns it contents until  everything is a similar consistency. Once in the small intestines, food  is broken down further into carbohydrates, protein, and fats and  absorbed through the wall of the intestine and into the blood stream.  Fat does not remain in the intestine for an extended period of time. While it is true that an accumulation of a large amount of body fat can put you at a higher risk for <a href="http://missourifamilies.org/features/nutritionarticles/nut6.htm" target="_blank">certain types of cancers</a>, this has nothing to do with the temperature of the water you drink before, after, or during meals. Finally, no medical studies support this claim. Be confident that a cool  glass of water after dinner isn't going to increase your cancer risk.  You may want to concentrate on reducing your cancer risk by doing things  that are known to lower your risk:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">not smoking and avoiding second hand smoke</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> not consuming excessive amounts of alcohol</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> practicing <a href="http://cancer.about.com/od/skincancermelanoma/tp/preventskincanc.htm" target="_blank">sun safety</a></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> eating a well-balanced diet</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> exercising regularly</li> </ul>බොරු කියන්න එපා බන්..<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rofl.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rofl:" title="ROFL    :rofl:" data-shortname=":rofl:" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rofl.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rofl:" title="ROFL    :rofl:" data-shortname=":rofl:" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rofl.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rofl:" title="ROFL    :rofl:" data-shortname=":rofl:" /></blockquote>
