Solution: Cut down the spices and use homemade and organic spices.
Non-Vegetarian:┬аHuman beings are not designed in a way to digest non-vegetarian food. Our teeth, digestive system, etc, are made for only a vegetarian diet. So, avoid the food which is taking too long to digest especially at this time when the digestive system is already too slow.
