Heart Warming -  What could possibly be more Heart Warming than a nice fire and a cup of hot cocoa with marshmallows.

WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING WHEN YOU FEEL A "BRAIN- FREEZE"?

According to the Mayo Clinic, the medical definition for a "brain-freeze" is a "headache attributed to ingestion or inhalation of a cold stimulus".

Another name for this condition is ice cream headaches, and what happens is that you feel a brief, keen headache after consuming a very cold food or drink. 

Believe it or not, scientists have not figure out yet exactly why this type of headaches happen, but one theory is that when you ingest a cold substance, it may temporarily alter the blood flow in your brain, causing a brief headache. 

There are no treatments for it because of its short duration, but if it does not go away in less than five minutes, visit your doctor because you might be experiencing something else.
