Clarify this for me please:

  1. You should not drink water after eating watermelon.
  2. You should not eat watermelon at night.

Really? :eek:

I also hear that if you stretch your arms right after a meal, you can get appendicitis.

Or if you grow a kids hair long, they remain short.

Or drinking cold milk is bad for digestion.

Re: watermelon ki kahani and other short stories.

^ yeah. it's how some foods are labelled 'garam'. like almonds, mangos, bitter melon (karaylay), etc.

i dunno how that affects us, but i've heard it at home.

dunno what the 'cold' foods would be. maybe watermelon? :D

Re: watermelon ki kahani and other short stories.

Watermelon is supposed to have thandi taseer.. Garam taseer foods are supposed to be rich in protein..
