Can Curd And Egg Be Eaten Together - #4027
I recently started experimenting with new breakfast recipes, and one of my favorites is a combination of boiled eggs and a side of curd. But then I heard from a friend that mixing curd and egg might not be good for health. I’ve been eating this combo for weeks now and didn’t notice anything major, but now I’m curious can curd and egg be eaten together according to Ayurveda? From what I know, Ayurveda talks a lot about food combinations and how they can affect digestion and overall health. If this combination isn’t ideal, could it be causing some minor issues that I haven’t linked to it yet? Lately, I’ve had some bloating and mild stomach discomfort, but I’m not sure if it’s because of eating curd and egg together or something else in my diet. Another thing I’m wondering is whether the way I eat curd and egg together matters. For example, does it make a difference if I eat them at the same time or a few minutes apart? Does Ayurveda recommend avoiding certain food combinations altogether, or is there a way to make them more compatible, like adding spices or eating them at specific times of the day? I’ve also heard that curd is considered cooling, while egg is warming. Could this combination create an imbalance in my doshas? If so, what are the symptoms to look out for? I’ve been trying to follow a diet that balances vata and pitta, and I’m worried this could be working against my efforts. If anyone has experience or knows more about this, I’d love to understand whether curd and egg can be eaten together without causing harm. Are there specific Ayurvedic guidelines or exceptions for this combination? I want to make sure I’m not unknowingly affecting my digestion or health by sticking to this habit.
