Myth or fact?

Quick turmeric reality check

  • Myth

    "Turmeric burns belly fat." In studies, curcumin pills helped people lose only about 0.6 kg more than placebo. Cooking with turmeric won't melt fat.

  • Fact

    "A teaspoon of turmeric has almost no calories." About 9 calories per teaspoon of ground turmeric.

  • Fact

    "Black pepper helps." Pepper's piperine boosts curcumin absorption, which is why the two are often paired.

  • Myth

    "Natural means totally safe." High-dose turmeric supplements have been linked to rare liver injury and can interact with blood thinners.
