Does turmeric cause constipation

Or those who ask turmeric, can it cause constipation? Turmeric, warm in nature, hard in taste, has the effect of removing qi and blood stasis, passing menstruation and relieving pain, and is widely used in many medical records and herbal records.

However, considering the actual situation, there is no conclusive conclusion that turmeric causes constipation. From its pharmacological point of view, turmeric can promote the operation of qi and blood, and regulate qi. Qi and blood are blood, qi and blood are smooth, and viscera functions are coordinated. In theory, it may be conducive to the decline of dross, and it will not stagnate into constipation. And turmeric contains volatile oils and other ingredients, which can stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis and improve digestion, which is not a sign of constipation.

However, the human body is different, and there are people with a dry and hot constitution. If they overtake turmeric, they will suffer from constipation due to their warm sex, or help heat to make a fire, causing intestinal fluid loss, dry feces and internal knots. Or people who are allergic to turmeric may experience gastrointestinal dysfunction after taking it, and may also occasionally experience constipation.

To sum up, generally speaking, the normal and appropriate use of turmeric has little risk of constipation. Only those with specific constitutions and overuse abuse may have this possibility, and they cannot be generalized. Doctors should verify the reasons, and patients should also follow the doctor's instructions to use it, and should not use it on their own, so as not to cause other changes.
