is curd acidic - #23934
I am a bit confused about curd and its properties. Lately, I've been experiencing some digestive issues, like bloating and acid reflux, and my diet includes a lot of curd. I read somewhere that curd could be acidic, and now I'm worried if it's contributing to my problems! My doctor mentioned pH levels, but I don’t really get how that ties in. Yesterday, I tried to enjoy a bowl of curd after lunch, thinking it’s cooling and good for digestion, but then I regretted it. I felt all this weird heaviness. Could someone explain, is curd acidic or not? Does it differ from other dairy products in that sense? And if curd is acidic, would that mean I should cut it out or maybe just limit how much I eat? I’d love to keep it in my diet, especially for its benefits, but if it's gonna mess with my stomach, that’s a big no! Any thoughts?
