does curd cause cold - #24405
I am really confused about whether curd causes cold or not. Like, I've always heard that eating curd during winter can make you catch a cold. My aunt is super strict about it and says I should avoid curd in colder months. But then, last week I had this bad cold, and strangely I had eaten curd the day before. I mean, I usually love having yogurt, like daily, especially in my smoothies or with rice. But, now I'm scared that I might be making my cold worse by eating curd? My friend says that's just an old wives' tale, but then what do I believe? Is there some kind of truth behind this whole does curd cause cold thing? I read a bit online, but honestly, the info is so mixed. Some say it’s fine, others swear it leads to respiratory issues. Frustrating! How to balance enjoying my food and not getting sick? Any insights on this would be super helpful!!
