Product Details

Nutmeg is a spice derived from the seeds of the fragrant nutmeg tree (Myristica fragrans). The powder has many uses, the most common of which is as a flavor additive in cooking due to its warm and somewhat sweet taste. Another popular use is as an essential oil obtained by distilling ground nutmeg into an oil. In cooking, the oil is often preferred to the powder, as it doesn’t leave behind any particles. However, while individuals most often use nutmeg as a flavoring agent, it has several other beneficial properties.

What are Nutmeg Supplements?

Nutmeg is much more than a sweet, nutty spice for baking. Nutmeg supplement powder contains numerous powerful compounds that may stimulate the immune system, boost libido, and more.

Potential Benefits of Nutmeg Powder

Nutmeg Powder as an Antioxidant

Nutmeg powder contains numerous compounds known for their antioxidant effects, such as cyanidins, phenylpropanoids, terpenes, and phenolic compounds. Antioxidants are critical for scavenging free radicals that damage cells by causing oxidative stress. Nutmeg powder’s antioxidant properties may also support the immune system.

Nutmeg Powder as an Antibacterial

Nutmeg powder has antibacterial properties that promote better dental and gum health. Nutmeg powder may also hinder the growth of harmful and dangerous bacteria.

Nutmeg Supplements and Inflammation

Nutmeg powder has an abundance of anti-inflammatory compounds known as monoterpenes. These compounds work by impeding enzymes that often cause inflammation. As such, nutmeg powder may lessen the severity of inflammation and inflammation-related pain.

Nutmeg Supplements and Libido

There is growing interest in nutmeg powder’s potential to enhance libido and sexual performance. In animal studies, nutmeg extract showed significant promise for increasing sexual activity and performance.

Nutmeg Powder and Mood

Recent studies suggest nutmeg extract may improve low moods. Nutmeg is rich in myristicin, a compound that reduces the activity of stress enzymes and enhances mood. While the results are promising, more human research is needed.

Nutmeg Powder as a Digestive Aid

Nutmeg powder may be able to stimulate digestion as well as ease bloating and constipation. Nutmeg contains several compounds that aid digestion, including fiber, magnesium, manganese, and zinc.

Potential Side Effects of Nutmeg Powder

Most individuals tolerate nutmeg powder well, which is why it remains a popular spice. However, excessively large doses (upwards of 5g) may cause hallucinations and toxicity.

How to Take Nutmeg Powder

Individuals should take 50 to 250mg per day with meals. Due to its small serving size, use a milligram scale to ensure accurate dosing.
