I use turmeric almost daily as my spice of choice for breakfast and I like it. Contrary to the claims it is anti-inflammatory, I've noticed that some of its component tends to accumulate in the body and cause some inflammation specific to turmeric consumption. But everybody is different, so it very likely will be different for you.
Your inflammation that you experience could be a reaction to some food. With age, people develop allergies to the foods they had eaten for their whole life without any problems. Unfortunately.
