Cold Water Drinking Tips: Many people in our country are troubled by the problem of obesity. Some people are also taking many measures to reduce obesity. If you are also aiming to reduce obesity, then this article is for you. In summer, we all drink water to avoid dehydration. Often people drink cold water in summer. There is a common belief in our society about cold water that it will slow down our metabolism.

Let us tell you that the reality is the opposite. When you drink cold water, the body has to expend a little extra energy (calories) to heat that water to its normal temperature. This process speeds up your metabolism a little.

According to a study published in 2003 in 'The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism', drinking 500 ml of cold water can increase the metabolic rate by 30%, which lasts for more than an hour. This small effect increases calorie burn when repeated regularly, which can help you control weight.

The science of cold water and thermogenesis
When you drink cold water, it slightly lowers the body's internal temperature. The body expends extra energy to bring it to a normal temperature (about 37°C). This process is called thermogenesis, in which the body burns calories to produce heat.

Benefits of cold water in weight loss
Drinking cold water can be a simple and effective way to lose weight. Cold water increases the metabolic rate, which makes the body burn more calories. Drinking a glass of cold water before meals makes the stomach feel full, so you eat less. Water flushes out toxins from the body, which helps in smooth digestion.

The right way to drink water
