It may blend well with your taste buds but pairing banana with milk can disturb your digestion and lead to increased production of toxin in your body.

Weird? No, people cook fish with milk, and this technique is called poaching. Experts say that poaching fish in milk makes it creamier and aromatic. Mixing these two proteins could make the digestion slower, leading to constipation.

It is generally not advised to mix citrusy fruits with milk. Mixing acidic fruit with milk will curdle the protein in the milk leading to numerous diseases.

Pairing egg with milk

You may bake a loaf of healthy bread and cakes, mixing milk and egg with flour to relish with your family, but drinking milk while eating eggs can cause stomach infections. And you’ll experience bloating, diarrhoea and other digestive risks.

It is always good to know what you're putting inside your body. Especially when you are pairing foods, be mindful if you don't want to experience an explosion of diarrhoea.

Stay safe!
