Ice cream related Headache

Ice cream would be anyone's favorite foods, especially children. However, these foods secretly created many problems for some audience. For example, there are people who become ill head as she felt the cold sensation of ice cream. There is also a throat so sore after eating ice cream. Or, still remember when your mother forbids you to eat ice cream and say, "Do not eat ice was yes, you're more cough?"

Is it true that ice cream is the cause of it all? What are the phenomena caused by ice cream?

Headache and sore throat

An issue of Harvard Women's Health Watch in 2009 had explained that cold temperatures cause blood pressure to shrink, and quickly enlarged again. Nearby pain receptors will then trigger the trigeminal nerve as pain signals. One way to restore the pain is to arch the tongue, then pressed on the palate. Or, eat it slowly.
When you are finished coughing after eating ice cream (or other cold drinks), this is likely to be caused by changes in temperature caused. As a result, the airways become irritated. Another possibility, because dairy products typically affect Lius water, and this can cause a thick mucus, which can irritate the back of the throat. That's when you feel like coughing.

However, the opposite of what you think, according to pediatricians ice cream it can reduce pain in the throat. However, it should be known in advance, if sore throat is caused by a viral infection, or bacterial infection? If the cause is viral infection, the pain will go away by itself. While if the cause is bacterial infection, you need antibiotics to cure it.

Well, according to Russell Steele, MD, professor and vice chairman of the Department of Pediatrics at Louisiana State University School of Medicine, New Orleans, if you're experiencing is inflammation due to viral infection, ice cream works better than any food to relieve the pain.

Often, sore throat occurs because your immune system is disturbed. At a time like this, you need to eat foods that are freshly cooked, nutritious food that will give you the strength to fight the infection. You also need to avoid foods that can irritate the throat, like chocolate or candy (when swallowed). Likewise, acidic foods like lemon juice, cranberry juice, or pickled cucumbers. Sometimes, spicy foods are also useful, thanks to his capcaisin content. However, its effect on every person is different. You may be less suited to spicy food.

The recommended food is soft, like chicken soup, and of course ice cream earlier. Lucinda Halstead, MD, assistant professor in the Department of Otolaryngology and Communicative Sciences at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, suggested to mute the first ice cream at room temperature several minutes before serving.

"Anything that is too cold, can be uncomfortable when swallowed," he said. Except, if you or your child can tolerate the cold.
