Turmeric is in the Ginger family. Grows like a weed here and it's a beautiful plant. Besides it's anti inflammatory properties, it's a blood purifier. Good for all around health! My Dentist hates the way it colors my teeth tho, so I now take caps bought at Amazon. They have the ones with black pepper too for better absorption. It is a blood thinner so caution is advised. Best to check with your Doc about possible drug interactions, especially pharmaceutical anti inflammatories ( like Advil, Motrin and other NSAIDS ) and blood thinners.
