Koflet Lozenges - #5923
I recently started eating more fruits to improve my digestion and overall health. One of my favorite combinations has been a bowl of papaya with curd. It’s light, refreshing, and feels like a healthy snack, but someone recently told me that eating papaya with curd might not be a good idea. Now I’m wondering: can we eat papaya with curd, or is it something I should avoid entirely? Sometimes after eating papaya with curd, I feel slightly bloated or heavy, but it’s not always consistent. I read somewhere that combining fruits with dairy can cause issues like gas, acidity, or even indigestion. Is there any truth to this from an Ayurvedic perspective? I know both papaya and curd are healthy individually—papaya is great for digestion, and curd is good for gut health. But does putting them together create any problems? I’ve also been thinking about timing. I usually have papaya with curd in the evenings, but does the time of day make a difference? Should I be avoiding this combination altogether at certain times? If Ayurveda suggests that can we eat papaya with curd in a safe way, are there specific guidelines to follow, like adding spices or eating them with other foods to balance their effects? Additionally, I’ve heard that certain food combinations can disrupt doshas or cause toxins to form in the body. Is this one of those combinations? I’d love to know if there’s a workaround since I enjoy eating papaya with curd and wouldn’t want to give it up completely. Any insights into whether can we eat papaya with curd safely, and if not, why this combination might not be recommended, would be really helpful.
