So even if you drink ice water, your body is still very thirsty In addition, the too low temperature of ice when it comes into contact with the oropharynx only instantly cools this area, causing the central nervous system to react in reverse. At that time, our nervous system thinks that the body temperature is falling, so it sends a signal to command vasoconstriction and close the skin pores.
