Vegetarian,
Because tumeric is from a root, like ginger, it is likely starchy. The only way to know for sure is for you to test what you have made with iodine. It might be that you can tolerate it, it just depends on how sensitive you are.
Some folk here find that even though things like ginger and garlic can be starchy their beneficial properties, including things like anti-inflammatory effects, outweight the negative.
