Is Buttermilk Good For Pitta Dosha - #3975

I’ve been dealing with a lot of heat-related issues lately, like acidity, heartburn, and irritability. I recently read that buttermilk can be a cooling remedy, but I’m not sure if it’s ideal for someone with a pitta imbalance. Can you clarify is buttermilk good for pitta dosha, and how it should be consumed for maximum benefits? I typically feel worse after eating spicy or sour foods, which I believe aggravates my pitta. Buttermilk seems like it could help, but I’ve also heard that its effect might depend on how it’s prepared. For example, does adding spices like cumin or coriander enhance its benefits for pitta dosha? Or should it be consumed plain for the best cooling effect? Another thing I’ve noticed is that buttermilk is often recommended for digestion. I struggle with mild indigestion and bloating at times. Is buttermilk good for pitta dosha in terms of soothing the digestive tract, or could it have any adverse effects if consumed too frequently? I also have questions about the timing. Is it better to drink buttermilk during meals, after meals, or at a specific time of day for balancing pitta? I’ve been trying to follow a more Ayurvedic approach to eating, and I want to include it in a way that doesn’t clash with my current efforts to reduce pitta. Lastly, are there any situations where buttermilk isn’t advisable for pitta dosha? For example, would mixing it with certain foods or taking it during specific seasons make it less effective or even harmful? I’d really appreciate your advice on how to incorporate buttermilk into my diet safely and effectively for pitta-related issues. If anyone has found it helpful in cooling their system or improving digestion, I’d love to hear how you use it.
