True or False: Your body burns more calories digesting ice cold beverages

• Your body burns more calories digesting ice cold beverages and foods (T/F)


True. But the amount of calories burned drinking ice cold beverages is very low. Don't expect to lose tons of weight by only drinking cold water.  A variety of studies have indicated that drinking five or six glasses of ice cold water could help you burn about 10 extra calories a day. What does this mean for your weight? That would equal about 1 pound of weight loss each year.
