Re: Tumeric

@bargainsgirl   I recently broke my shoulder - about 6.5 weeks ago (seems longer).  I am recovering OK but talked with my physical therapist about a poltus that I would cook on the stove and wrap in a gauze bandage and apply to the area that needs attention on my arm.  

She was not against it but when I read you post I thought maybe you could do the same....instead of taking a pill form of Tumeric.  There is tumeric in the poltus.

 

There is breast cancer on my side of the family so I would not ingest that product but I think applying to the painful area would not hurt...do not know that for sure.

 

I had no idea about the spice being hormone sensitive for some people.

I can't remember which, but it appears it shouldn't be taken with one of my meds, either BP or blood thinner.

You are correct.  That was also mentioned in the article I read.

It also should not be used by someone who has gallbladder issues (that would be me).
