What is better to cool down... Hot or cold drinks?

What is better… Cold or Hot Drinks?

A hot drink could actually cool you down… how I hear you asking!

- Your core temperature initially rises

- Then the sensors in your mouth, throat, and digestive tract send a signal to your brain to produce MORE sweat

- This increase in perspiration is the key to COOLING DOWN


A study of people doing exercise found that drinking a 50-degree drink reduces overall body heat storage MORE than drinking cold drinks


So what happens when you have a cold drink in exercise

- Your internal body heat moves to your bodies surface, while your inner temperature actually decreases

- If we have too much cold food/drink we will cause the blood vessels to tighten and make the body retain heat. This will cause you to feel WARMER not cooler.
