Personally, I love drinking cold water. I can't stand regular temperature water. It tastes icky for some reason. I've been drinking cold water for years...but well, I read some article many months ago about cold waters.
It said that cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine and very soon, this will turn into fats and can lead to cancer. So quite frankly, it is best to drink hot soup or warm tea/water after a meal. I mean, look at the Japanese and Chinese. They drink hot tea with their meals, and I believe that they're not as prone to cancer than the typical Americans, agreed?
I still drink cold water though. =/ I'm just that addicted to it.
