Apart from being an ace fashion designer, Masaba Gupta is a hardcore foodie. She advocates clean eating habits. And, at times, she also shares glimpses from her healthy meal diaries. Today, Masaba decided to talk about safed petha juice. Masaba posted a snapshot of a glass filled with the juice on Instagram Stories and wrote about its benefits.

Masaba Gupta further explained that Ayurveda “pushes you to have an alkaline system. And, it does wonders”. She compared it with the benefits of having safed petha (Winter melon, Ash gourd) juice on an empty stomach. Masaba went to add, “I am a pitta type and I break my fast with it now.” Listing the benefits of the juice, Masaba said that the drink is a diuretic and helps relieve sciatica pain. It also cleans the small and large intestines and has anti-ageing properties. Best part? It cools the body. She then advised, “Drink as is or with a pinch of black jaggery or salt. See if it works.” Masaba also added the hashtag “Masaba swears by,” to her Stories.
