is homemade curd good for weight loss - #42545
I am really confused about my diet lately. I've been trying to lose weight, but I feel like nothing really works. Friends keep telling me to try homemade curd, which they say is super healthy. I mean, is homemade curd good for weight loss? Last week, I made a batch and honestly, I kinda binged on it. I mixed it with fruits and honey, but now I’m worryin if that was a good idea. Like, I thought adding fruits is healthy, right? But then I read somewhere that sometimes even healthy things can have hidden calories or stuff. I remember my aunt saying that homemade curd is packed with probiotics and can help digestion, but can it really help with weight loss? I've also been on this low-carb diet, but I miss my dairy. Dairy just feels like a comfort to me. Do I need to be careful about the amount of homemade curd I eat? I want to balance it out without gaining weight. It’s kinda daunting, you know? I’ve been trying to keep track of my calories, but like, how much should I allow myself? Is there a way to incorporate the homemade curd and still see some progress? Anyone out there had success with this?

Homemade curd is indeed a valuable addition to a weight loss regimen, especially when considered from an Ayurvedic perspective. However, moderation and mindful combination with other foods are key. Curd is rich in probiotics which support the digestive fire or “agni,” a critical component for efficient metabolism. A balanced agni helps convert food into nutrients properly, aiding in weight management.
You mentioned combining curd with fruits and honey. While fruits and curd individually have health benefits, their combination requires careful consideration. Ayurveda generally advises against mixing fruits with dairy, as it could disrupt digestion. In your case, this could potentially slow down your progress. Instead, opt for spices like cumin or black pepper in your curd to enhance digestion and metabolism.
When it comes to curd, understanding your body’s constitution or prakriti is crucial. If you have a kapha-dominated constitution, you might want to limit dairy intake, including curd, as it can increase kapha and lead to weight gain. For pitta or vata types, curd might be more beneficial, but still in moderation.
You expressed concern about bingeing on curd. It’s essential to consume it during daytime, preferably with lunch, as per Ayurveda. Eating curd at night is not recommended, as it can lead to excessive kapha accumulation and congestion, potentially hindering weight loss.
Regarding portion size, consider keeping your curd intake balanced. Around a small bowl per day should suffice, depending on your individual needs and levels of physical activity. Be sure to maintain a balanced diet with a combination of fresh vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
If you’re on a low-carb diet, including curd can provide you with satisfying protein and calcium, but balance it carefully with the rest of your food choices. Listen to your body, monitor how different combinations affect you, and consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized diet based on your dosha, to tailor the appropriate amounts and foods specific to your body.
