Answer:

Although curcumin (from turmeric) has been shown in clinical studies to improve symptoms of indigestion and ulcerative colitis, it is true that it a small percentage of people may experience nausea, diarrhea and mild stomach distress, especially when taking high doses for prolonged periods of time. This and other concerns are discussed in the Turmeric and Curcumin Supplements Review, which includes details about dose, side-effects, tips for taking curcumin and turmeric supplements, as well as ConsumerLab.com's tests of products.
