Ayurvedic health coach Dimple Jangda has raised concerns about the potential dangers of refrigerating certain common foods, specifically onions, ginger, garlic, and rice. In a recent video shared on social media, she explained how these staples can turn toxic when stored in cold environments.
According to Jangda, refrigerating these foods can alter their chemical composition, leading to harmful effects on health. Onions, for instance, may develop bacteria when stored in the fridge, which can cause digestive issues. Similarly, ginger and garlic can lose their beneficial properties and may even produce toxins when exposed to cold temperatures.
Rice, particularly when cooked, poses a significant risk as it can harbor spores of Bacillus cereus, a bacteria that can proliferate and lead to food poisoning if not handled properly. Jangda emphasizes the importance of proper storage techniques, advocating for keeping these foods at room temperature to maintain their nutritional integrity and safety.
