Mango Benefits: Almost everyone likes to eat mango in summer. Its sweetness and juiciness make it even more special. It is called the king of fruits. Both raw mango and ripe mango are liked very much by the people.
Chutney and pickle are made from raw mango. At the same time, people eat ripe mango as a fruit or in the form of juice and shake. This fruit has been said to be very beneficial in Ayurveda. Do you know what are its benefits if it is eaten with curd?
What is this healthy combination?
The combination of curd and mango is a fun one, but when the two are combined, the mixture is rich in calcium, probiotics and protein from the curd and vitamin C, vitamin A, antioxidants and natural sugars from the mango. Mixing these two in their raw form creates a balance of macronutrients and essential vitamins. In fact, the protein present in curd complements the carbohydrate-rich mango, making it a healthy option.
What does Ayurveda say?
There is a common belief in Ayurveda that mixing curd with certain fruits, including mango, can lead to an imbalance or the formation of a toxin called ‘ama’. But modern nutritional science does not support this claim, making it a healthy option unless the person is allergic, has frequent colds, or has a poor digestive system.
