Key ingredients 1

Nutmeg powder
Neutral

Nutmeg powder is a spice derived from the seed of the nutmeg tree and is used for its aromatic properties. It is minimally processed, retaining most of its natural compounds. While it adds flavor, it does not provide significant nutritional benefits.

Risks

In large quantities, nutmeg can cause adverse effects such as hallucinations and nausea due to the compound myristicin.

Benefits

Nutmeg contains small amounts of antioxidants and may have anti-inflammatory properties, but these benefits are minimal in typical culinary use.
