A New Jersey woman says she almost died after taking daily turmeric pills, a popular supplement found in grocery stores.
Katie Mohan, a 57-year-old from Morristown, told NJ.com she sustained liver damage after taking daily pills of turmeric, a yellow spice widely used for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
