薑黃有利於消炎,和胡椒粉一起吃更佳。但是有數據報告對肝不好。我家庭醫生發給我的信息如下:
Turmeric
- Hepatic - "Orally, turmeric has been associated with liver damage, including non-infectious hepatitis, cholestasis, and hepatocellular liver injury. There have been at least 60 reports of liver damage associated with taking turmeric supplements for at least 2 weeks and for up to 8 months, most of which resolved upon discontinuation of the turmeric supplement. Oftentimes, turmeric was used concomitantly with other supplements and medications (99304,102346,103094,103631,103633,103634,107122). It is not clear if this contributed to the risk for liver damage. Many case reports did not report turmeric formulation, dosing, or duration of use (99304,103094,103631,103634). However, at least 10 cases involved high doses of curcumin (250-1812.5 mg daily) and the use of highly bioavailable formulations such as phytosomal curcumin and formulations containing piperine (102346,103633,107122)."
