Can We Eat Muskmelon With Milk - #3946

I’ve been trying to experiment with healthy recipes lately, and one of the things I recently made was a muskmelon smoothie with milk. It tasted amazing, but then someone told me it might not be a good combination according to Ayurveda. That got me wondering, can we eat muskmelon with milk, or is it something I should avoid? I’ve heard that Ayurveda has strict guidelines about combining foods, especially fruits and dairy. Does the combination of muskmelon and milk cause any issues with digestion or overall health? I haven’t noticed any major discomfort after drinking it, but I don’t want to accidentally create long-term problems by continuing this habit. Another thing I’m curious about is why muskmelon and milk might be considered incompatible. Is it because of the way they are digested? I read somewhere that fruits like melons digest quickly, while milk takes longer. If that’s true, does it mean having them together can cause bloating or other digestive problems? I also wonder if there are any exceptions to this rule. For instance, is it okay to mix muskmelon with milk if the milk is warm, or if it’s blended into a smoothie? Does the temperature or preparation method make any difference, or is it always a bad idea to mix them? If it’s true that we shouldn’t eat muskmelon with milk, are there alternative ways to enjoy these two foods separately without losing out on their benefits? I’d like to keep both in my diet because they’re nutritious and refreshing, especially in summer. Lastly, is this advice specific to Ayurveda, or does modern nutrition also say something about muskmelon and milk combinations? I’d love to understand both perspectives better so I can make more informed choices.
