is curd hot or cold - #23927
I am really confused about whether curd is hot or cold for the body. I mean, I always thought it's cooling since I grew up eating it to beat the summer heat, but then my friend claimed it’s hot, especially for digestion and at night? Like, I enjoy having yogurt after meals, especially with rice, but lately, I’ve been feeling kinda bloated and uneasy in my stomach, and I'm not sure if it’s from eating too much of it. My mom says it can be heavy and not good to have in the evening, which makes me wonder, is curd hot or cold? I've tried it in smoothies too, which felt refreshing, but then I read somewhere that having curd at night can be bad for my health. It’s all a bit frustrating, right? Can someone shed some light on this? Really want to clear this up and understand how I should incorporate curd into my diet without feeling yucky afterward.
