How does Turmeric work?

The chemicals in turmeric might decrease swelling (inflammation).

Turmeric seems safe for most people. It can sometimes cause nausea or diarrhea.

  • You have gallbladder disease.
  • You are scheduled for surgery in the next two weeks. Turmeric might increase the risk of bleeding.
