Side effects and contraindications of turmeric:

You would have to drink an incredible amount of this tonic or eat a ton of curry to suffer any adverse side-effects of turmeric. In normal doses, it is usually completely safe. If you are taking turmeric supplements additionally, you will want to be aware of these possible side-effects:

  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Decrease in iron absorption
  • Fertility concerns
  • Problems with blood clotting- if you have surgery scheduled this is particularly important

Regarding contraindications, if you are on medication for blood-clotting or blood-thinning you should check with your doctor or healthcare professional about your turmeric consumption.

Additionally, pregnant and lactating women are generally advised not to take herbal supplements. Turmeric specifically stimulates the uterus and may cause a miscarriage. Eating a meal with curry or having a glass of tonic or a cup of tea is considered safe, but do not take supplements. And, again, if you have any concerns or questions you should always check with your doctor.
