While you might think ice cream is the perfect way to cool off during the summer, you might want to think of a different summer dessert because apparently ice cream can increase your body temperature!
Apparently it's all because of digestion because when we do digest our foods we create energy and heat so instead of ice cream cooling us off it can actually make us feel hotter.
According to multiple dietitians, while ice cream is great to cap off the night, making sure you stay hydrated with water is key to cooling off during these super hot days.
Also we're not ones to tell you how to live your life, but whenever we eat ice cream we always have to drink water right after because of the milk too so it's a lose-lose with ice cream!
