Short answer

We found no documented interaction between Boron and Turmeric in the sources below. That isn't proof the combination is right for you: check each one's cautions, and ask your pharmacist if you take medication.

Boron

What it is: A trace mineral found in many foods. It isn't considered essential because no clear role in the body has been identified.

What the research says: It may play a part in bone health, calcium use and steroid hormones, but this isn't proven.

Cautions

• Adults shouldn't exceed 20 mg a day.
• Most boron poisonings come from swallowing boric acid or borax products, not food or supplements.

Medicines to check

• No clinically relevant medicine interactions are known

Turmeric

What it is: A spice root in the ginger family; curcumin is its best-known active compound.

What the research says: There isn't enough evidence to say turmeric helps any health condition. Early evidence for knee osteoarthritis pain and stiffness is positive but needs better studies.

Cautions

• Standard turmeric or curcumin is likely safe in recommended amounts for 2 to 3 months.
• It can cause nausea, reflux, stomach upset, diarrhea or constipation.
• Liver damage has been reported with curcumin made to absorb better. Stop and see a clinician if you notice tiredness, dark urine or yellowing skin.
• May be unsafe in pregnancy.

Medicines to check

• Talk to your clinician if you take any medicine
