This significant temperature difference is a great stimulation to the human digestive tract,causing blood vessels in the intestines to constrict and reducing the secretion of digestive juices.If one eats too much ice cream each day, frequent cold stimuli can lead to intestinal diseases.Children who overeat ice cream are generally fatter after eating more, while thin children tend to become even thinner.

This is because fat children have better absorption functions; the fats and sugars in the ice cream only exacerbate their obesity;while thin or weak children usually have weaker constitutions or eat unbalanced diets. Eating too much ice cream can worsen their aversion to food.Therefore, nutrition experts warn not to eat ice cream in the morning, before meals, after meals, and at bedtime or on an empty stomach.In addition, people with weak constitutions, especially those with poor digestive function,as well as patients with diseases such as hepatitis, diabetes, gastritis, and colitis should not consume ice cream.
