Why does this happen when you drink water after chewing gum?
Well, I've never noticed the effect quite so strongly, but what you're observing is the cooling effect of menthol. It actually took scientists a long time to figure out exactly how it worked, but basically the menthol in the chewing gum triggers the "cool sensors" in your mouth (and on your skin, if you wanted to put chewing gum on your skin.) When you drink water, you're washing other chemicals off of those cold-sensing nerves, and the menthol remaining in your mouth snags right onto them and sets them off. (You get similar effects when you drink water after eating other foods, most famously artichokes.) You must be particularly sensitive to it. It doesn't actually lower the temperature of anything, but the nerves think that they do, and that's all that matters. Regular iced tea doesn't have menthol, so that must be a different effect, unless you're talking about mint tea...
What happens when you drink water that has some mold in it?
Some molds produce chemicals called mycotoxins, which in turn cause nausea, irritation of the eyes and lungs, fatigue and headaches. You can go to your doctor and explain what happened, it may just be coincidence though. Mold is very unhealthy to be exposed to on a daily basis, and can cause various infections. Fungal infections such as Aspergillosis can occur (it doesn't fit your symptom however). Anti-fungal treatment is available.

What happens if you drink salt water?
Depends . 1. If you go to sea shore , well fed , well hydrated and drink 100 ml of water , you will notice no difference .2. If you drink 200 ml of sea water , you will feel nauseated , and may even vomit it out . 3. If you drink 500 ml of sea water and manage not to vomit it out , you will require hospital care to suck it out of your system and may even need dialysis care to keep your kidneys from failing . 4. If you are lost at sea , run out of water and food , and are thirsty , and drink 100 ml of water , you are likely to die . Why ?What is the composition of sea water ? Each liter of sea water contains sodium 11 gm, sulphates 3 mg , magnesium 4 mg and calcium 423 mg . Almost all of these are one way or other are necessary for our body , but in sea water they are in a form that is generally not digestible by the human body . If you are well hydrated , well fed , the body does not need to deal with any of these salts and just throws them out of the digestive system after extracting whatever nutrition it can from it . No harm results . If on the other side , in scenario 4 , your body is thirsty and accepts anything that comes in . The water is absorbed by the body ,and the salts have to be sieved out by the kidney . This is way too much work for the overworked kidneys . Also to throw these salts out , kidneys need more water , thus you are dehydrated even further . This will on one side lead to failure of kidneys , on the other side exacerbate delirium , delusional tendencies due to heavy dehydration .
What happens when you drink water after eating a banana?
Hi Doe, thanks for A2A.There's is a myth and a truth that surrounds the answer of this question.The fact is, you should not drink water immediately after having FRUITS & MEALS. When you eat your food or fruits, the acid from your digestive system starts the process of cracking food and absorbing essential nutrients from the it. If you drink water immediately, it disrupts this process resulting in slow or improper digestion in which nutrients are not absorbed properly and passed towards body exit.So, why point at banana only?Hope this helps.
What happens when you starve yourself and only drink water?
I have fasted on only water for seven days before, and I lost about 15 pounds in that week. You don't feel hungry after a while but you may become weak the last few days. Your metabolism becomes completely massacred and you gain it all back anyways, and some people gain double the amount back. I did it for spiritual reasons, but if your motivation is weight loss, I swear to you it's the worst thing you can do. Doctors sometime prescribe fasting so that people who think their too skinny can GAIN weight. It's really way too risky and the chances that you'll see any results regarding weight loss are slim to none.
