There is no reliable clinical evidence to prove that “eating ice is detrimental to the liver”.
The liver is an important organ in the human body, which mainly synthesizes and metabolizes various nutrients, detoxifies endogenous metabolic wastes and exogenous toxins, synthesizes coagulation factors, and synthesizes and secretes bile, etc. Factors that commonly cause damage to the liver include liver trauma, hepatitis viruses, alcohol, fatty liver, and medications.
There is no clear evidence that consuming cold food may cause liver damage, but consuming too much ice cream, popsicles and other cold food may irritate the gastrointestinal tract and accelerate gastrointestinal peristalsis, which may lead to abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms, so the consumption of cold food should be in moderation.
Patients can go to the gastroenterology department of regular hospitals and other related departments for detailed consultation.
