So every week I go to temple and there they give KHICHDI as prasad so today let’s understand some of the benefits of including khichdi in your diet.

🔗 Packed with nutrition
Khichdi is a wholesome meal that has the perfect balance of nutrients.The combination of rice, lentils and ghee provides you with carbohydrates, proteins, dietary fibre, Vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium.

🔗Easy to digest
Khichdi soothes the stomach and the intestines, making it the perfect meal for when you’re sick, but also a good change from food that is loaded with spices.

🔗Gluten free
People who are avoiding gluten either out of choice or necessity can safely eat khichdi, since rice doesn’t contain gluten.

🔗Part of Tridoshic routine
Khichdi happens to be a part of the Ayurvedic diet because of its ability to balance all three doshas -Vatta, Pitta and kapha, making it a part of Tridoshic routine.Apart from calming the digestive system along with detoxifying it, the ingredients in Khichdi, improves energy, immunity and digestion.
