In this Hindi YouTube short, the speaker demystifies why curd (dahi) feels cooling on the skin and in the mouth yet is considered heating inside the body according to Ayurveda. He explains that after digestion the curdтАЩs vipaka (postтАСdigestive effect) is hot, leading to increased thirst and a sensation of heat. Traditionally, curd is eaten at breakfast in villages because its heating effect is beneficial in the morning, but consuming it at night is discouraged. At night, curdтАЩs secondary effect is to increase kapha and cause channel clogging, making the body feel heavier and more kaphaтАСdominant. The speaker therefore advises eating curd in the morning rather than at dinner.
