Can We Drink Milk After Eating Amla, and What Are the Effects? - #12000
I’ve been incorporating amla into my diet for its numerous health benefits, but I’ve heard conflicting information about whether it’s okay to drink milk after eating amla. Can someone explain if this combination is safe according to Ayurveda and how it affects digestion and overall health? From what I understand, milk is considered heavy and nourishing, while amla is light and detoxifying. How does combining the two affect digestion, and why do some people avoid this combination in Ayurveda? Are there specific digestive issues that can arise from drinking milk after eating amla, such as acidity or bloating? How does Ayurveda explain the possible incompatibility between the two, and what does it recommend instead? Should I avoid this combination for general health, or is it safe to drink milk after eating amla in certain quantities or circumstances? Lastly, what are the best ways to consume amla for maximum health benefits without combining it with incompatible foods like milk?
