Masaba Gupta relishes ‘kadhi chawal’ for lunch, know the benefits of having this combo in summer

Actor and designer Masaba Gupta has given a sneak peek at her lunch menu. She shared an Insta story while relishing kadhi chawal. Kadhi is a protein rich low fat curd dish that’s easy to digest. While the cooling effect of curd makes it refreshing during hot summer days, rice is light and easy to digest if consumed in moderation. Curd is also rich in water content, which keeps the body hydrated during the summer.

What is kadhi?

Kadhi, a traditional Indian dish made from curd and gram flour (besan), often seasoned with various spices like curry leaves, dhaniya seeds and mustard seeds. It is not only delicious but also offers several benefits, especially during the summer months.

Other health benefits of eating kadhi in summer

Cooling Properties: Kadhi is known for its cooling effect on the body, making it particularly refreshing during hot summer days. The yogurt base helps to lower body temperature and provides relief from heat.

Hydration: Curd, the main ingredient in kadhi, is rich in water content, which helps to keep the body hydrated during the summer. Staying hydrated is essential for overall health and helps to regulate body temperature.

Probiotics: Kadhi contains live cultures of beneficial bacteria from yogurt, which are known as probiotics. These probiotics support gut health by promoting the growth of good bacteria in the digestive system, aiding digestion and boosting immunity.

Nutrient-Rich: Kadhi is a nutritious dish that provides essential nutrients such as protein, calcium, vitamin B12, and riboflavin from dahi.

Light and Digestible: Kadhi is relatively light and easy to digest compared to heavy, oily dishes. This makes it an ideal choice for summer meals.

Low Calorie: Kadhi is often prepared with minimal oil and can be made with low-fat yogurt, making it a nutritious and low-calorie option for those watching their weight or following a healthy diet.
