Nutmeg contains a compound called myristicin which, when consumed in large amounts, can have psychoactive effects. Eating too much nutmeg can lead to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and a feeling of being disconnected from reality. In severe cases, it can lead to hallucinations, seizures, and even coma.
It is important to consume nutmeg in moderation and use it as a spice in cooking rather than ingesting it in large quantities. If you or someone you know has ingested a large amount of nutmeg and is experiencing severe symptoms, it is important to seek medical help immediately.
