Kadhi
Sometime we just feel why to make a kadhi which is so simple to cook,but please note besan kadhi is loaded with good bacteria, which is healthy for the gut. It helps in maintaining gut flora and improves nutrient absorption. All this, in turn, helps in improving the digestion.Kadhi is also rich in magnesium, which relaxes your muscles and helps in maintaining heart health.So we should always eat food which is not only easy to cook but easy on digestion.It is also found that a cup of kadhi consumed regularly can be beneficial for your skin and hair, as gram flour boosts collagen formation and has anti-inflammatory properties. Be it acne, dark spots or any skin issue.Kadhi is also a recommended diet for pregnant women as it is rich in folate, vitamin B6 and iron and ensures the growth of the baby which reduces the change of miscarriage.Please Note:It is common believe that we should not eat curd at night,but people who are prone to severe cold and cough should avoid eating curd at night.
