Indian Food Digestion Time Chart - #3929
I’ve been trying to improve my eating habits lately because I often feel bloated and sluggish after meals. I think part of the problem is that I might not be combining foods correctly or giving enough time between meals for proper digestion. I came across the idea of an Indian food digestion time chart and was curious about how it works and if it can help with these issues. Since I mostly eat Indian food, it would be really useful to know how long different dishes take to digest. For example, I eat a lot of dal, rice, chapati, and vegetables, but I also include snacks like pakoras or samosas sometimes. Does an Indian food digestion time chart show how long each of these takes to break down? Are lentils and beans slower to digest compared to rice or vegetables? One big issue for me is eating too close to bedtime. I love having a heavy dinner with things like biryani or parathas, but I’ve noticed that I wake up feeling heavy or sometimes with acid reflux. If I use an Indian food digestion time chart, can it help me figure out the best time to eat these heavier meals? Also, what about combining foods? For instance, I often have yogurt with my rice or fruit with my meals. Does an Indian food digestion time chart include information on how these combinations affect digestion? I’ve heard that mixing certain foods can slow down the process or even create toxins in the body. Lastly, I’d like to know if this chart can guide me on snacking. Indian snacks like bhujia or kachoris are my weakness, but I’m trying to be smarter about when and how much I eat them. How can an Indian food digestion time chart help me manage these cravings better without messing up my digestion? If you has a good source for a reliable chart or tips on how to plan meals based on digestion times, please share!
