Bright sun. And the tiredness of being drowsy. Summer in Bengali life means a lot of discomfort. But even in this heat, Bengali can pass a season with a smile just by the power of one fruit. Mango is the king of fruits. Himsagar to Langra, Amrapali to Fazli – the smell of them in the summer market fills the mind of a Bengali. From the morning snack to the last leaf of the night, if there is no mango, the day is like soil. But while tasting this nectar full of juice, are we unknowingly causing great danger? Nutritional science says that the chemistry of certain foods with mango is not at all pleasant. The body may have to pay the high price of satiety.
curd
First in the list of ‘enemies’ of mangoes is Bengali’s favorite curd. Who does not like the combination of cold curd-mango-chirn in summer! But according to nutritionists, the combination of these two is the master of the twelve bells of the stomach. Mango and curd together are difficult for the body to digest. As a result, the risk of stomach upset increases.
take off
Equally dangerous can be eating mangoes after mid-afternoon leaves or bitter gourds. Many people pick the last leaves of the mango to cut the bitter taste in the mouth. This acid-sweet and bitter battle can cause serious poisoning inside the body. It is not uncommon to experience problems like nausea and dizziness.
Spicy food
A Bengali should also give up the habit of eating mangoes after his Sunday lunch of khasi meat broth or hot oil-spiced cooking. Mango’s own acid reacts with the ingredients of the spice to instantly produce gas-heartburn and indigestion.
Cold drinks
These days there is a trend to have cold drinks after eating mangoes. Remember, mangoes and cold drinks are high in sugar. Taking both of these together can cause a sudden spike in blood sugar.
the water
Finally comes the Eternal Rule. Do not make the mistake of drinking water after eating mangoes. Heartburn and stomach rumbles are guaranteed by eating fruits and drinking water. Make it a habit to drink water at least half an hour after eating mangoes. It is wise to enjoy the taste of mangoes while being healthy.
