Querry, galvanizing, refreshing cold water? Finally, not really …
Cold water would allow you to have more beautiful skin, since it would tighten pores or prevent the appearance of wrinkles … However, some dermatologists do not share this opinion.
“” “When it comes into contact with the skin, ice can potentially damage the skin barrier because of its low temperature, which can be problematic for patients whose skin is already dry and sensitive ”, Explain to National Geographic Jessica Garelik, dermatologist at New York University.
Watch out for ice water showers
No, the water does not refresh, it allows only a furtive relief during very large heat. “” “Man is an animal homeotherm. When it is cold, it produces heat internally and externally. When it is hot, it transpires to evacuate the heat”Explain to the HuffPost Brigitte Tregouet, general practitioner.
The more cold water in contact with water, the more it will be used to produce heat. A gesture therefore counterproductive, which risks increasing the printing of heat as soon as the shower is leaving. According to Brigitte Tregouet, it is better to take a lukewarm shower, since when the water will evaporate, “This causes cold, it refreshes and decreases body temperature”.
Prefer lukewarm water in summer
During a big heat period, it can be tempting to rush to a large glass of fresh water to alleviate its thirst and because it is much more pleasant to drink cold water rather than hot when the outside temperature is around 30 ° C.
However, as Maxime Mességué, a nutritionist dietitian in science & life explains, drinking cold water will force the body to work more and therefore consume water. Too hot water is not recommended either since it will increase perspiration. The ideal temperature is therefore 15 ° C.
