For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal.
However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have
just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this "sludge" reacted with the acid, it will break down and be
absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food.
It will line the intestine.
Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer.
It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

An old wives tale. Your body will accomodate most temperatures. Read this though. They had a research paper out a few years ago saying that the best cancer fighter was Interferon, at $15,000 a gram. What the paper also said was that Interferon was a product of the natural breakdown of Vitimin C in your system. A few months later the FDA tried to make Vitimin C a perscription drug. Guess why??? The FDA says that the RDA for Vit C is 65 mg a day. That is enought to stave off scruvy. Linus Pauling, who got a Nobel Prive for his discovery and work with Vit C said 1000 mg a day normally and 2000mg a day if you get sick. He played tennis up until the day he died at 96. It makes sense. I took large doses of Vit C when I was sick, a week flat on my back twice a year and after 20 years the doctors had no idea what my problem was. Vit C increased daily over a week and following a bell curve over the 2 weeks, 40,000 mg a day at the peak and 300,000mg over 2 weeks, and I was completely asymptomatic. Doing that for 2 years and I have not been sick in 10 years now. You might look into it.

There are over 200 different types of cancer. So, I'd say that there is absolutely no scientific evidence that proves drinking cold water after meals causes cancer. It's a hoax.

Don't believe it.
Within minutes of eating, everything in your stomach becomes the same temperature: 98.6 degrees, like the rest of your body. If I found a webpage that was trying to say drinking cold water caused cancer, I wouldn't believe anything else on the page.

That is the biggest bunch of BS i have ever heard. You're more likely to get cancer from the sun or a bad gene. Enjoy the cold water!
