Why do only people in China like to drink hot water?

? People in China drink hot water out of habit. It's like confinement. Then let's analyze it.

? Ancient times are too far away. Let's analyze the present situation. At present, the control of water resources in China is still insufficient. You can't drink the tap water in the city unless it is boiled. Moreover, our family has drilled many wells in the countryside, and the water quality has not been tested at all, so many impurities may exceed the standard. Therefore, people in China like to heat the water before drinking, which is also more hygienic. Otherwise, many people who drink raw water directly will have stomachache or physical problems because the water quality is too hard. In short, the cost of not boiling water before drinking is too high, which is greater than the cost of boiling a pot of hot water, so people will choose to drink hot water. On the contrary, because their science and technology are more developed and there are more developed countries in the west, they can invest more money in the construction of people's daily necessities. The control of diet and drinking water in western countries is very strict, and the inspection standards can even be said to be harsh. Therefore, westerners do not say that drinking tap water will make you sick, and it is more convenient to drink cold water naturally.

Another point is the problem of eating habits. China people like cooking and pay attention to health. If you eat, you should pay attention to the collocation of meat and vegetables, and even cook health soup. So China people's physique will make you warm up better. This is not to say that you are stronger than westerners, but that you are less prone to get angry than your own constitution, because eating habits make our bodies in a state of harmony between yin and yang. Well, let's look at the west. Westerners eat more beef and mutton. Mutton is a well-known hot tonic, while westerners like to eat fried food and barbecue, so they will get angry more easily than we do, and even get thirsty after eating. When they are very thirsty, hot water can't be drunk, so cold water has become the best choice for westerners.

? The other is physical problems. From the physical point of view, westerners are more robust, at least more robust than orientals, so maybe at first, people of both races drank cold water, and orientals didn't respond well, so they kept trying to improve, but westerners could adapt and stopped boiling water. Of course, this is pure speculation. It remains to be verified.

? Another important thing is habit. Some people say, no, many people here drink raw water directly and are in good health. Then we have to talk about the magical creatures like parents. Because of the great influence of parents, we even made a product advertisement called family infection, which is your household products and medicines. When you grow up, you will use these products more easily because of your habits. I think drinking hot water is the same as this, because all elders drink hot water, and we even have a position in our hearts that hot water is the only way to drink.

Therefore, for various reasons, only people in China can drink hot water.
