I always thought Turmeric and other spices are toxic. Looks like that is really the case

You're not suppose to exceed (on a daily basis) 4 cups of green tea or the equivalent.

Well, Turmeric supplements contain Turmeric in them aswell combined with some other chemicals most likely which makes it even more toxic really. And as the article says consuming large doses of Turmeric in general can cause problems:

In 2023, the Australian FDA equivalent, the Therapeutic Goods Association (TGA), issued a warning that highlighted the risk of liver injury from consuming turmeric and/or curcumin.

I think however even small amounts can cause some damage especially when you consume it for a longer period of time
