is curd heat or cold - #23823
I am feeling really confused about something. I've been hearing different things about curd and whether it is heat or cold for the body. So, I love yogurt, like, I eat it almost every day! But, my friend told me it may cause heat in the body, especially in the summer months, which made me kinda worried. Like, I always thought curd was cooling, right? I actually tried switching to other options, thinking they’d be better for my digestion. But honestly, my stomach gets a little upset without my everyday curd fix. And now I’m wondering if it’s really true that curd heat or cold affects us differently. Heard about pitta dosha and stuff, and could my pitta be too high? Are there ways to still enjoy curd, or should I completely cut it out? Like, should I eat it in moderation, or is there a specific time of the day that’s better? Should I mix it with something else to balance out this heat in my body? Just really need some clarity here, thank you!
