Surveillance in India, Bangladesh, and the United States

A 2014 study published by researchers at Harvard University reported lead concentrations of up to 483 ppm in turmeric samples collected from 18 households in rural Bangladesh,²³ where the allowable level of lead in turmeric is 2.5 ppm.²⁴ Furthermore, several international media outlets have cited evidence that adulteration of turmeric with lead chromate is an ongoing problem. For example, the Times of Indiareported that during a raid by the Indian Food and Drug Authority in 2010, inspectors discovered >100 bags of raw turmeric contaminated with lead chromate at a spice-manufacturing plant.²⁵ Similarly, a major Bangladeshi newspaper purchased turmeric from local markets in 2014 and found lead concentrations of up to 55 ppm in packaged powder samples and 182 ppm in dry turmeric roots that had been boiled and polished but not ground.²⁶ When the newspaper interviewed a local turmeric grower, he reported that “traders use the artificial color [lead chromate] to hide the marks of pest attacks and other spots on raw turmeric. It is used during boiling and polishing to make the spice look brighter to attract big buyers, including spice processing firms.”²⁶ Most turmeric sold in the United States is imported from India and Bangladesh.²⁷
