Can We Eat Curd And Chicken Together - #4074

I’ve been trying to make my meals healthier by incorporating more protein, and recently, I started having chicken more often. A few days ago, I made a simple chicken curry and decided to have it with curd (yogurt) as a side. But after eating this combination, I felt a bit uncomfortable – some bloating and mild indigestion. This got me wondering, can we eat curd and chicken together? Is it safe or even recommended in Ayurveda to combine these two foods? I’ve been dealing with some digestive issues for a while, like occasional bloating, gas, and feeling heavy after meals. I assumed it was just from eating heavier foods, but after consuming curd and chicken together, the discomfort seemed to increase. I know both curd and chicken have their own health benefits – curd for digestion and chicken for protein – but I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to combine them. Could this combination be affecting my digestion in a negative way? I’ve heard some people say that curd and chicken together could cause digestive problems, but I didn’t think much of it until now. I always assumed that as long as the food is healthy, it’s fine to eat them together. But after this incident, I started thinking maybe there’s a reason Ayurveda advises against combining these two foods. So I wanted to ask, according to Ayurveda, can we eat curd and chicken together? What happens in the body when these two foods are combined? Could they create any imbalance in the digestive system? I’ve also read in some articles that certain foods don’t go well together in Ayurveda due to how they interact in the body. Is curd and chicken one of those combinations? For example, I know Ayurveda suggests avoiding the combination of milk and fish, and I wonder if curd and chicken might have a similar effect. Is it true that some food combinations cause fermentation or difficulty in digestion? Another thing I’m wondering about is if this applies to all kinds of curd or just the store-bought versions. I tend to eat plain, unsweetened curd, but I’ve heard that some types of curd are more difficult to digest. Should I avoid curd altogether when I’m eating chicken, or is it safe to eat it with chicken if the curd is homemade or prepared a certain way? Lastly, if curd and chicken are not a good combination, what would be a better side dish to go with chicken? I’m looking for something that will help with digestion while still complementing the protein in the chicken. Maybe a vegetable or a different type of yogurt that is easier to digest? I’m hoping to get some insight from anyone who’s had experience with this combination or from an Ayurvedic perspective. Can we eat curd and chicken together, or should I avoid it? Would love to hear what works for you or any Ayurvedic tips for improving digestion when eating chicken.
