Disadvantages of eating curd at night: As the summer season approaches, the trend of eating curd increases in almost every house. Especially in North Surguja area of Chhattisgarh, people consume curd daily to get relief from the heat. Curd cools the body and is also considered good for digestion.
But most people do not know at what time it is right to eat curd and at what time its consumption can be harmful for the body. If curd is eaten at the right time and in the right quantity, it is very beneficial for the body.
Curd gives coolness and essential nutrition to the body
Expert Dr. Shailendra Gupta told that curd is considered very beneficial for the body during the summer season. Its effect is cooling, which provides coolness to the body and provides relief from heat. Many essential nutrients like protein, calcium, phosphorus and vitamin B12 are found in curd. Apart from this, curd also helps in fulfilling the water deficiency in the body and replenishes the essential minerals released with sweat.
Consume curd only in limited quantity
According to Dr. Gupta, curd is beneficial for people of almost all ages, but it should be consumed only in limited quantities. Generally, about 100 grams of curd daily is considered sufficient for an adult person. Besides, it is also important that the curd is fresh and not too sour. Too sour curd can be harmful for the body.
Why should one avoid eating curd at night?
Experts say that it is better to consume curd during the day. The temperature remains relatively cool at night and eating curd at that time can have a negative effect on the body. Especially people who already have cold, cough or throat problems should avoid eating curd at night because its cold effect can increase the problem.
Too much sour curd can cause disease
Dr. Gupta explains that if the curd has become too sour, it means that it is not fresh and may be several days old. Consuming such curd can cause problems like swelling in stomach and intestines, vomiting, diarrhea and loose motion. Therefore, one should always consume fresh curd and avoid eating too sour curd.
