Hindustan TimesSummer is the season of juices, shakes and smoothies as they are believed to cool our bodies, easy to digest and pack a nutritional punch. Mango shake, banana shake and other fruit shakes are quite popular among people and often find their place at the breakfast table. However, as per Ayurveda experts, one should be careful while mixing fruits with milk as many a time, they produce ama, the toxic by-products that can be root of many health problems. Milk should be combined only with purely sweet and ripe fruits Mango shake vs banana shake: The healthy option Not all fruits are suitable for consumption with milk and from Ayurveda perspective, only those fruits that are sweet in nature and are fully ripe are ideal for a recipe that has milk as an ingredient. "Even though they are sweet, after they are ingested with milk, the post-digestive effect will be sour, so the two should not be combined," says Ayurveda expert Dr Dixa Bhavsar Savaliya in her Instagram post.
