The average half liter of beer has beer has 200 calories.
If you serve it at 7 C (45F) it gets warmed up to 37C (99F) in your body. It takes 1 calorie of heat to raise the temperature of 1 cc 1 degree C. So, if you drink a half liter of beer, you body uses 15000 clalories to warm the beer (500 cc X 30 C).
So, your body actually uses 14,800 calories more than it gains from the beer. The more cold beer you drink, the more weight you will lose.
Now, what's wrong with that scenario.

Calories in food are actually kilocalories--each one equals 1000 of the calories you are referring to.

Loosing weight quickly is often an undesirable element. the excellent element to loose and carry a healthful weight is healthful nutrients, much less sugar, somewhat some eating water, and activities. there are a number of diets who inform you which you would be able to loose somewhat some weight real away. And it relatively is working, yet you're doing no stable on your physique. and there is likewise the Jojo-effect. weight-help plan has to start on your head. and you already began to think of roughly your meals. that's an significant step. it relatively is in basic terms too ordinary in basic terms to make a mag-weight-help plan for 2-3 weeks and loose some weight. despite the fact that it gets back quickly returned. in case you're over-thinking your meals and interest, you're becoming to be a consistently stable effect. isn't that plenty extra effective and extra healthy than a crash-weight-help plan ? stable success and Take care :-)

I don't know whether to give JustJennith a thumbs up for the right answer or a thumbs down for spoiling the dream. Now I'm crying in my beer. How many Calories is that?

First of all, it's one calorie to raise the temperature of water. Water is not beer. So therefore, your theory is inaccurate already. Your beer also does not have 200 calories, it has 200 kilocalories or 200,000 calories. Plus, calories from alcohol can not be used for metabolism. Thus, the beer belly.

Well, if it was true, then I would be as skinny as a rail! Since I am not, knowing how much I do drink and my beers are always ice cold, it just doesnt add up.
Nice thought tho. What a diet that would be! LOL

Mmmm-hmmm. Does it work for a cold Pepsi Summer Mix, too? That doesn't come in diet.
(I don't claim to be on my toes; I just know that when I drank a Summer Mix every day for a week, I gained two pounds.)

Wrong. The heat your body produces that warms the beer is actually excess, extracellular heat, given off as a by-product of metabolism. So the warming is passive and takes zero calories to perform.

Whats wrong is you aren't calculating the compound gas expulsion factor, damage to the ozone layer, contributions to greenhouse gasses and global warming caused by excess beer intake.

there is nothing wrong with that because you actually do loose more weight if you drink cold beers.
