Can We Drink Milk After Eating Karela - #4060

I’ve been trying to improve my diet lately, and I’ve been adding more vegetables to my meals. One of the things I’ve started eating more often is karela (bitter gourd). I know it’s great for digestion, and I’ve heard that it helps with blood sugar levels too, which is important for me since I’ve been struggling with my blood sugar recently. However, I have a question that’s been bugging me for a while. Can we drink milk after eating karela? I’ve been told different things by different people, and I’m confused. Some people say that drinking milk after eating karela can cause digestive problems and is a bad combination, while others tell me it’s fine as long as I’m careful. I usually enjoy karela with some spices and a little bit of ghee, and sometimes I like to have a glass of milk afterward as a way to cool down my system, especially in the evenings. But lately, I’ve been wondering if I should stop drinking milk after karela. My main concern is whether this combination is bad for my digestion. I’ve read that milk and karela can create a conflict in the digestive process because milk is considered heavy and cold, while karela is considered hot and bitter. Can we drink milk after eating karela without upsetting our stomachs? I’ve experienced some bloating and mild discomfort in my stomach after eating this combination, but I wasn’t sure if it was just because I was overeating or if it was the milk and karela together causing the issue. I also read that Ayurveda suggests avoiding certain food combinations, and I’m wondering if milk and karela fall into that category. If I shouldn’t drink milk after karela, what should I drink instead? I don’t want to mess up my digestion, and I’m trying to get the most benefit out of both karela and milk, but I’m just not sure if they’re a good match. On the other hand, some of my family members swear by drinking milk after karela, saying it helps balance the bitterness and is good for the skin. I’ve even heard that the Ayurveda way of life is more about knowing your body and what works for you individually. So, maybe drinking milk after karela works for some people but not others? I’m not sure if my body can tolerate it, which is why I wanted to ask here for some professional advice. Has anyone else been told that they can’t drink milk after karela? Or has anyone tried this combination without any problems? I’d really appreciate some clarity on this issue. Should I stop drinking milk after karela, or can I continue with this combination if I want to?
