Turmeric is effective and not toxic
Turmeric (Curcuma Longa) is a frequently used spice in South Asian foods like curries, and it can add a warm orange or yellow color to meats and rice dishes. It also has a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine.
The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, and research finds that it “has a surprisingly wide range of beneficial properties.”
Curcumin, unlike some NSAIDs, has also been determined to be nontoxic. NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen, taken in excess can cause symptoms that include convulsions, coma, and acute renal (kidney) failure.
Turmeric spice or extract: Which is better?
Experts say that given turmeric’s known health benefits, including it in meals is best.
Eating turmeric with fats or oils can improve absorption.
“Turmeric however, specifically the phytonutrient curcumin, has so many health benefits, so definitely incorporating turmeric into meals would be ideal as part of an overall healthy lifestyle plan,” said Reema Kanda, RD, a clinical dietitian at Hoag Orthopedic Institute.
“Incorporating turmeric into meals that contain fats and oils or black pepper will enhance absorption.”
Kanda emphasized that the quality of the turmeric powder can also affect bioavailability. She also said, “You want to be sure the turmeric powder is free of contaminants that are often found when making powders.”

She added that many studies have utilized turmeric extracts over turmeric powder, which has higher amounts of curcumin. Because of that, “the studies recommended extracts for therapeutic use for health benefits such as improving in joint pain.”
