Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

The thermic effect of food.
Processing food from meals uses only about 5-10 of total calories and does not increase by much. Drinking cold beverages or eating cold foods may increase the calories used but not by nearly as much as that used by the muscles for heat production to maintain stable body temperature.
