Can We Eat Curd With Mushroom - #5470
I’ve recently started incorporating more mushrooms into my diet because they’re packed with nutrients and easy to cook, but I’ve been wondering about mixing them with curd. Is it okay, or can we eat curd with mushroom without causing any health issues? I’ve heard that Ayurveda advises against certain food combinations, and now I’m unsure if mushrooms and curd are compatible. Here’s the thing – I often prepare dishes like mushroom curries and gravies that include curd as a base. I haven’t experienced any immediate problems, but I’ve read that curd is heavy and heating, while mushrooms are earthy and slightly dry, which might create an imbalance. Does can we eat curd with mushroom depend on how they’re prepared or the quantity consumed? Another concern is digestion. Lately, I’ve been feeling a little bloated and sluggish after meals, and I wonder if the combination of curd and mushroom is too heavy for my system. Does Ayurveda say anything specific about this pairing leading to toxins (ama) in the body or aggravating Kapha and Pitta doshas? I’m also curious about whether cooking curd and mushrooms together, like in a hot dish, makes it better or worse. For example, if I use curd as a marinade or mix it with spices, does that help balance their effects, or is it still not ideal? If can we eat curd with mushroom is not a good combination, what are some good alternatives to pair with mushrooms? Should I replace curd with coconut milk, buttermilk, or something else in recipes?
