As a traditional Chinese medicine, turmeric is not generally known to be an antidote to alcohol.
The medicinal source of turmeric is the dried rhizome of Curcuma longa, family Zingiberaceae, which has the ability to break up blood and move qi (using medication that activates blood circulation and removes blood stasis to push the flow of qi and blood), and to promote menstruation and relieve pain, and it can be decocted or used externally.
It can be used for the treatment and improvement of qi stagnation and blood stasis, stabbing pain in the chest and ribs, chest palsy, dysmenorrhea, obstruction of menstruation, obstruction of the masses (lumps in women’s lower abdomen), bruises and pains, rheumatism, and shoulder and arm pains, but there is no authoritative research showing that it has the effect of detoxifying alcohol.
However, there is no authoritative research showing that turmeric can relieve alcohol consumption. It should be noted that it should be used with caution in cases of blood deficiency, Qi stagnation and blood stasis, and in pregnant women. If you need to detoxify from alcohol, you can take Kudzu Flower Tea Soup under the guidance of a doctor, or utilize Chinese herbs such as Kudzu Root, Kudzu Flower, Hovenia dulcis, and others to detoxify from alcohol. In addition, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions to recognize the evidence and use Chinese medicine, and should not use medication indiscriminately on their own, so as not to damage the body.
