What is Bhagyashree’s go-to gut recipe

Explaining the idea behind the recipe, Bhagyashree said, “To improve gut health, today’s recipe is one of my comfort foods. All its ingredients are beneficial for the stomach. They help cool the gut and improve gut health.”

She then highlighted the role of curd in digestion, adding, “Curd is probiotic, which means it helps with digestion.”

What are the health benefits

Talking about vegetables and their benefits, she shared, “Onion contains quercetin, which helps reduce inflammation. Pumpkin helps cool the stomach and is rich in fibre, antioxidants, and vitamins A and C.”

Bhagyashree also pointed out the importance of fats and spices in gut health. “Mustard oil contains butyric acid, which helps control gut inflammation. Curry leaves, asafoetida (hing), and kasuri methi all promote gut health,” she explained.
