Hello all,
I'm new to the forum but wanted to know if others eat ice as I do. I actually crave ice and must have it at least once a day. I love it crushed but shaved is better. I asked my doctor if there was a medical reason for it such as anemia as I've been told by others but the answer was no. So far my dentist says it ha had no effect on my teeth ( a constant worry). Any ideas?? Thanks--Domino

Hi Domino,
Do you crave the taste sensation or do you have a slightly dry mouth, if it's the latter you should be checked for a mild form of Sjogren's syndrome. I think you would know if you had a dry mouth though.

Hello John..no dry mouth I just LOVE the taste and sensation of eating ice. Even the smell is great..it's a noisy habit with all the crunching so can't really explain it. I will check into Sjogren--never heard of it. Thanks

Hi Domino,
Eating ice sounds great to me, I'll have to give it a go, I know I have eaten it as a kid but that was a long time ago.
