Who doesn’t love a glass of soulful Punjabi Lassi? Almost everyone! It brings instant happiness to our face, especially in summer. But have you ever wondered if these kinds of sweet drinks can harm your health internally? If not, today we tell you things you really should keep in mind.
Check out the side effects of lassi (buttermilk):
Bad for diabetes
Most of us love the delicious taste of this desi drink. But speaking of the amount of sugar and fat in lassi, it can quickly raise blood sugar levels and is not good for diabetic patients.
Change blood pressure
Due to the high sodium content of the spices and salts used to make masala lassi or chaas, drinking it can aggravate existing kidney disease. These drinks may taste good, but their herbs increase the risk of kidney problems and alter blood pressure in the body.
Causes skin problems
Some people may be lactose intolerant and may not be aware of it. This can cause skin problems. Buttermilk should be avoided by people with eczema and other skin conditions as it can aggravate these conditions and lead to irritation and dryness of the skin.
Increases weight
Lassi affects your calorie intake and significantly increases your weight if you consume too much of it, especially at bedtime. It contains protein, making it challenging for the body to digest while you sleep.
Cold, Cough and Congestion
Because of the cold force, which exacerbates the body’s mucus production, drinking lassi at night can also cause a cold, cough, and congestion. Mucus can aggravate respiratory conditions such as asthma and cause sluggishness, body aches, congestion and fever.
