Reason You Shouldn't Drink Ice Water When It's So Dang Hot

If you find yourself over heated, looking for a drink to cool off, don't drink ice water!

The reason being, if your body temperature elevated, drinking ice cold water could shock your system. You could really die of thirst. If anything, sip on cold water never quickly drink it down. Room temperature water would be best.

According to wmdt.com -

If you want to stay hydrated, it's recommend that you drink two bottles of water 30 minutes before going outside. This should keep you in good for about an hour. :-)
