Effect of temperature and/or sweetness of beverages on body composition in rats.

In conclusion, cold-water ingestion improved lean body mass gain and decreased fat gain because of increased energy expenditure, while non-caloric sweetener (acesulfame-K) increased body fat gain due to improved energy efficiency. Internal cold exposure failed to increase energy intake in contrast to that of external cold exposure.
