As the winter season comes to an end and the temperature gradually increases with the arrival of summer, it becomes important to keep the body hydrated. In summer, people prefer different drinks such as juices, curd and lassi to stay hydrated. Lassi and curd both taste delicious and have several health benefits. However, many people wonder which is more beneficial for health, lassi or curd?
Curd: Summer superfood
Curd is rich in probiotics (good bacteria), which are very beneficial for the stomach. Eating curd aids digestion and cools the stomach. If you have problems with an upset stomach, acidity or gas in summer, then eating curd will be very beneficial. It strengthens digestion by increasing good bacteria in the stomach.
Lassi: Tastes Delicious But Heavy
Lassi is made from curd, but cream, sugar and sometimes dry fruits are also added to it. It tastes good, but drinking too much can lead to weight gain and indigestion. Drinking creamy lassi in summer can lead to a heavy stomach and slow digestion. Also, weight can increase due to the presence of sugar and cream in it.
Curd contains natural electrolytes, which replenish the lack of water in the body. Eating it keeps the body hydrated and provides relief from the heat. If you want to lose weight or stay fit, then avoid drinking creamy lassi. It contains more sugar and calories, which can lead to weight gain.
Overall, if you want to take care of your health and feel light and cool in summer, then curd is the best option, but if you want to change the taste sometimes, then you can drink lassi without cream and with less sugar.
