I just found out I'm pregnant and want to make sure that Turmeric will not adversely affect the baby or pregnancy in any way. Is there such a thing as taking too much? Or are there any known problems it could cause? My husband takes turmeric & ginger for arthritis pain and it has done WONDERS for him! We buy it from the spice section in bulk and pre-mix it 50/50. He takes a few spoonfuls a day with a glass of water. I have read so many great benefits of turmeric that I am hopeful it will work for allergies and sinus problems. My main concern is it being safe for the baby...
Yes, it is absolutely safe to have turmeric....coming from india...i use turmeric everyday in my cooking...even during my pregnancy......Actually i had bad cold during my 2nd trimester and i would put 1/4 tsp of turmeric powder in warm milk and drink it..it is very good for colds n coughs and also good for the baby.....
