‘Sonu doesn’t like mirchi’: Farah Khan reveals actor’s chilli-free chole preference
Farah Khan shared that actor Sonu Sood has a unique dietary preference: he avoids consuming green chillies in his meal. When Sonu visits for dinner, his chole is specially prepared without green mirchi. Farah revealed that Sonu's dislike for green chillies was his own affirmation. An expert in clinical dietetics, Garima Goyal, explained the benefits of green chillies.
Rich in capsaicin, green chillies offer antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, support immunity, reduce oxidative stress, and improve circulation. Goyal emphasized that a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, herbs, and good gut health plays a significant role in immunity rather than just spice levels. She pointed out that avoiding chillies may make taste buds more sensitive, enhancing the appreciation of subtle food flavors.
Additionally, for individuals with acid reflux, gastritis, IBS, or certain skin conditions, eliminating chillies from the diet can help reduce flare-ups. However, overall, it's perfectly fine for the general population to avoid chillies as long as meals remain flavorful and nutrient-dense. Farah concluded by stating that one doesn't need to consume spicy food to maintain a healthy lifestyle, as demonstrated by Sonu Sood.
