If you’ve seen people online talking about eating ice to lose weight, you’re not imagining it. The “ice diet” became a thing thanks to Dr. Brian Weiner, who said your body burns calories warming up the ice you eat.
Here’s the breakdown:
✅ Eating ice might help control appetite ✅ Your body uses energy to melt it ❌ Chewing ice can damage your teeth ❌ Not a long-term weight loss solution
Some experts are skeptical. Others say it could help slightly if added to a normal healthy diet—but it’s definitely not a shortcut.
So if you’re looking to shed pounds, don’t toss out your workout gear for an ice tray. But hey, a little chewable ice on a hot day? That’s still a win. 😎
