Gallbladder Problems
Individuals with gallstones or a bile duct obstruction should avoid turmeric since it can worsen gallbladder issues.
Turmeric can cause the gallbladder to contract, exacerbating pain and blockage in individuals with underlying gallbladder conditions.
Bleeding Disorders
Because turmeric might slow blood clotting, it can increase the risk of bleeding and bruising in people with bleeding disorders.
Anyone with a condition that affects blood clotting should consult a healthcare provider before adding turmeric to their regimen.
