She also provided a step-by-step instruction on how to make the curd-raisin combination. Here is the process –

  • Take a bowl of warm milk preferably fresh and full fat
  • Add 4-5 raisins to it (preferably black raisins)
  • Take a small drop of dahi, even better buttermilk, and add that to the milk
  • Stir it multiple times (grandmothers say 32 times)
  • Cover it with a lid and set it aside for up to 8-12 hrs
  • When the top layer appears thick, the curd is ready to eat
  • Have it with lunch or as a mid-meal 3-4pm post lunch

Benefits of curd and raisins

“Curd acts as a probiotic and the raisins with their high content of soluble fibre as a prebiotic,” according to Rujuta.

When combined, they help neutralise the bad bacteria and promote the growth of good bacteria. Curd with raisins can help reduce inflammation in the intestines, keep your teeth and gums healthy, and it is good for the bones and joints too.

“Curd is also a well-documented intervention for regulating cholesterol levels, reducing BP and promoting weight loss. It works that much better in the elderly and the young as it prevents constipation and makes it easy to chew on raisins,” Rujuta explains.

If you are trying to get pregnant, the nutritionist recommend adding dates or khareek.
