This is the negative calorie celery argument isn't it? The same one coca cola is using in it's ads i.e you use most of the calories in a can of coke going to the store to buy it and opening the can = no problemo.

I ate this on a run earlier and drank some ice cold Deep RiverRock (Yes I know it's "water you wear")

I then died horrifically of fat induced cancer exacerbated by the intake of water. My funerals on Tuesday.

[QUOTE 2591412, member: 9609"]1 pint of ice cold water to body temperature = 21 kCal

I am always surprised at how much energy is in food - just looking at a bar a chocolate I will be enjoying later when out on the bike. 320kCal that is enough energy to boil enough water to make 19 cups of coffee! (200ml water per cup, tap water at 17°C)[/quote]

I'm more worried by the silver shoes and white socks.

Unless it's a cold day the heat to warm the water would otherwise just be dumped, so no gain there.

But how much heat is chucked out by the body when that water makes you go for a pee?

I think I've heard that you shouldn't drink very cold drinks when eating fondue, in case they solidify the melted cheese. But I think that was more to do with giving yourself indigestion, than cancer...
