Benefits of Having Curd and Jaggery Before Exams


Reasons why curd is good for students who are about to take an exam:

1. It increases energy levels when taken with misri/jaggery (avoid sugar).
2. According to Ayurveda, it is buddhi-vardhak (intelligence-enhancer).
3. It is also Kapha-vardhak (Dosha in Ayurveda) which keeps the mind and the body cool.

Curd For Weight Loss

If you want to lose some weight, having curd daily is a good idea.

Probiotics (healthy bacteria) present in curd improves metabolism and maintains your gut health.

Plus, the proteins in curd releases satiety hormones which keeps you full for hours.

Some Points to Remember

1. If you have a choice, go with yogurt instead of curd but make sure it is flavour-free. Greek yogurt has more proteins when compared to curd, why is why you may consume it.

2. Curd results in weight gain if it is made from whole milk instead of skimmed/toned milk.

3. Do not consume curd at night if you are suffering from cold and cough or bloating. Doing so may aggravate your condition as curd is Kapha-vardhak.

4. Curd is the best alternative for lactose-intolerant individuals.
