For what it is worth I just got off the phone with my GP asking about cinnamon and turmeric. He is not a cardiologist but he didn't think in food those would be any big deal. I do use a LOT of it so am backing off. And I <3 LOVE Indian food. So ask your doc but this is just what mine said.

Looks like 1% of folks could be adversely affected - genetic testing required to see if you’re one of them. The K channel gene variant involved typically manifests as LQTS anyway before adding any QT-prolonging drugs (or curcumin).

If we’re asking our GP who is not a Cardiologist, about things a cardiologist MIGHT know about, then the answer is blowing in the wind.
We may as well ask a chef. My GP, for whom I have great respect, would not answer that question, and I would not expect her to.

I suppose that is true. I also did talk to my pharmacist that is with the EP department at the hosptial. That is probably the best resource but everyone is probably better off to ask their own professionals they are comfortable with.

Curcumin, novel application in reversing myocardial fibrosis in the treatment for atrial fibrillation from the perspective of transcriptomics in rat model.
Here is a study that shows a possible positive affect of curcumin in atrial fibrillation and in reducing atrial fibrosis.

This is the genetic test

Pretty easy to figure out. I've had a few other test from Invitae, cost is about $75/test without insurance coverage
