You may be allergic to the stuff, XOR you may be in kapha-metabolism, which is incompatible with it.

A little salt on a slice of avocado, can send a vata-metabolism person into heaven.

The book on the fundamental-metabolisms, & there mixed-together versions, is:

kobo.com/…/ayurvedic-healing-a-comprehensive-guid…

IF that book ( & Frawley & Kozak’s “Yoga For YOUR TYPE” ) identifies you as pure-kapha, you’re supposed to not-like-it, because it’s harmful for pure-kapha metabolism’s health.

PS: for all the Scientism-fundamentalists, DO THE EXPERIMENT of discovering YOUR metabolism/dosha, & then preparing pairs of dishes, such that each pair has 1 dish with only-aggravating-of-your-metabolism & 1 dish with only-pacifying-of-your-metabolism, & LET THE EVIDENCE ITSELF SPEAK.

For people of pure-metabolisms/doshas, that should be sufficient evidence.

For people of mixed-metabolisms, it may not be possible to get a clear difference, & for all-3-mixed-together, there isn’t any possible way to convince them of any such thing.

This is 1 of many peer-reviewed actual-evidence-based-science articles that backs Ayurveda: www.nature.com/articles/nindia.2015.148

There are around 9 THOUSAND articles listed in PubMed also backing the evidence-based position: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=ayurveda

Ideological “medicine” that “identifies as” evidence-based medicine can go eat rocks.
