Curd can be the ultimate 'bowl of joy' for you. On top of that, there are so many ways of eating curd. You can top it with chopped fruits and berries, or opt for any yoghurt special dish. If not anything, it can be the perfect meal companion during lunch. Curd is enriched with calcium, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, magnesium, and potassium, plus aids in digestion. Despite everything, do you know that curd should not be consumed with certain food items? Yes, according to Ayurveda, some food items shall never be paired with curd; otherwise, they can be very harmful for the health. As much as 'poison'. Here are the five foods that should never be consumed with curd:Â
Many people tend to eat curd in the form of a vegetable raita. But, you should never add onion to it. Onion produces heat in the body, while curd is cold in nature. The hot and cold combination can be a disaster altogether. It can lead to skin allergies like eczema, rashes, psoriasis, and other related problems.Â
How about fresh mangoes dipped in thick curd! That can be the perfect dessert for the day. But, it can be the most unhealthy combination for health. Just like onion and curd, mango and curd are also hot and cold, not making them healthy. They release toxins in the body, also leading to various skin issues.Â
What if you think that two protein-rich foods can serve as an excellent food? On the contrary, it can be the most disastrous combination ever. Yes, two body-building foods shall not be combined. You can, however, pair up a vegetarian source of protein with an animal source of protein, but never pair a vegetarian source of protein with another vegetarian source of protein or an animal source of protein with another animal source of protein.Â
Here, curd is derived from dairy animals, and fish is also non-vegetarian. So, do not ever eat these two foods together. It can cause indigestion and other stomach issues.Â
No one would try having milk and curd together. But still, if someone opts for trying something other than the usual, then make sure it is not this. Again, milk and curd both are derived from animals. If you have these together, then it might cause gas, acidity, and the worst, diarrhea.Â
Urad dal is already a heavy food. When you intake it with curd, you might have digestive issues. These two foods together can result in gas, acidity, bloating, and diarrhea.Â
Well, who ever thought that their perfect breakfast option or a Sunday brunch meal of ghee-enriched parathas with dahi is not a good idea. When you have oily foods such as parathas with dahi, they only slow down the digestion process, making you feel lethargic and drained of energy. And this is something that might be tried and tested for you. One full meal of Chhole bhature, when completed with a glass of lassi, doesn't make digestion easy; rather prompts you to take a nap, which turns out to be an overdose of sleep.Â
Therefore, it is suggested to never ever try to consume these foods together. Even if your tongue likes it, this might not be a good deal for your health. Do consult a nutritionist before you choose some food combinations.Â
