cold and oxygen

 

I drink alot of ice water (it has to be ice water) and love to eat ice cream.  I was wondering today if the cold would make me feel as though I was getting more oxygen.  This probably sounds crazy.  I take a big cup of ice water everywhere I go. If anyone thinks this is crazy or it makes sence please let me know Thank you.

God bless all of you and to all of you Merry Christmas

Carolyn
