Ice cream is not able to provoke a sore throat, but its use in the heat can reduce a person’s immunity due to hypothermia of the throat. About this in an interview with the agency “Prime” told pediatrician of the MEDSI clinic on Leninsky Prospekt Natalya Nezhdanova.
The specialist recalled that angina (acute tonsillitis) is caused by pathogenic bacteria or viruses under adverse factors, including hypothermia.
“Ice cream in itself is not dangerous, but hypothermia of the throat can reduce local immunity, which activates the pathogenic flora,” – explained the doctor.
Nezhdanova emphasized that those who are not completely healthy should not eat a lot of ice cream, so as not to aggravate the condition.
The physician drew attention to the fact that, in general, ice cream is quite useful for the nervous system and immunity, since this product contains various amino acids, vitamins and trace elements. At the same time, with a number of diseases, for example, with problems with LCD, the use of ice cream should be limited.
Previously, a nutritionist warned people with acne against eating ice cream.
