Description
Nutmeg is a spice that comes from the seed of the nutmeg tree. It has a warm, spicy, and slightly sweet flavor and is commonly used in both sweet and savory dishes, such as pies, cakes, and stews. Nutmeg is also used in traditional medicine practices for its potential health benefits, such as reducing pain and inflammation, improving digestion, and boosting brain function. However, consuming large amounts of nutmeg can be toxic and cause hallucinations, nausea, and other adverse effects, so it should be used in moderation.
