Wrong Food Combinations You Must Avoid as per Ayurveda. Incompatible Foods - 2

Curd should not be consumed in the night

Buttermilk is easy to digest whereas curd is slow to digest at night. Consumption of curd can be easily digested at lunch time when our digestive abilities are the strongest. People with poor digestion should avoid curd at night.
