Does Milk Along With Watermelon Cause Any Adverse Side Effects?

Hello, my name is Nathalie. I just wanted to know if it is OK if you can drink milk before/after you eat watermelon. What are the symptoms if you do get sick? Do you need to take any medications if you want to drink milk before/after you eat watermelon? What are the possible effects on drinking milk before/after eating watermelon? Any replies? Sincerely, Nathalie

Hello,

Thanks for Writing to Health Care Magic and putting trust in us regarding your Health related query.
I am Dr. Saleha and I have read your message in detail, I understand your concern and will try to help you in this.

I'm afraid somebody have told you something regarding drinking milk along with water melon and that's why you are worried about any possible problem which can arise if you do it.

In my opinion there should be NO PROBLEM in drinking milk along with water melon. There is no established side effect of this. Yes some people think that it might cause belly upset if one drinks water or milk along with water melon or even cholera can happen, but this is just a misconception.

Cholera occurs due to a bacterium and it has no relation with watermelon or drinking any drink with it. As there is no associated established problem in drinking milk with watermelon so i will suggest you not to worry you don't need to take any medicine to drink milk with water melon neither do you have to worry about any problem. Keep good hygiene and everything should be fine and safe.

Stay blessed and each water melon with what ever drink you want.

I hope this answers your question.If you have more questions, I am happy to answer.

Wish you lasting health.

Regards.
