Harms of ice??!


Question: Is it ok to eat ice like that.i mean chewing it like rice or pizza.
Does it harm the teeth in anyways.
I have this habit of literally eating ice in summers not sucking.Though sometimes i feel cold sensation in my tooth.But I am careful not to eat the hard ones.

But recently someone said it is a symptom of anaemia.and that i should see a doctor.
Plz share your thought guys.

Just be careful not to chip a tooth, otherwise it is not harmful. The cold sensation in your tooth is just from the ice, not anemia. If you had anemia, you would usually feel weak, tired, short of breath.

you may have a lowered blood level which is similar to anemia. (hope it sounds right when you right this) but you should take iron pills and see if it curbs your appetite. i seriously have that problem very bad and i have had it for over 20 years. my teeth are as strong as nails and have not been affected to my knowledge but i have heard of people cracking teeth and i have even gotten sharp pieces of ice in my wind pipe. when i take iron or eat dirt this desire goes away.
