Safety Concerns

Although turmeric compounds have been shown to support gallbladder health, some doctors suggest avoiding both turmeric and curcumin if you already have gallstones. This is because turmeric and many of its compounds can cause gallbladder contractions, which can cause pain if around a stone. (vii.127, 130)

Conversely, helping the gallbladder contract properly helps get rid of the sludge that can cause gallstones. As always, play it safe and consult with your health care provider before using turmeric or curcumin if you already have gallstones or have had them in the past.  (vii.127, 130)
