If you are having trouble falling asleep or even staying asleep, a spice that you have on your spice rack can help!!

According to fit life.tv,

.....nutmeg has been shown to be a powerful sedative that can help in both cases of insomnia and sleep deprivation. This is because it is a rich source of myristicin, a natural organic compound that inhibits the release of enzymes that cause stress, which can help lead to a restful sleep.

Sounds like it's worth a try, but remember to follow these guide lines.

  • Nutmeg should only be taken in moderation; remember a little goes a long way (1 pinch).

  • Since nutmeg has been linked to hallucinations and even toxicity in high measurements. You should never exceed ¼ teaspoon and only take nutmeg under the supervision of your doctor.

  • Please note that this is not recommended for children and pregnant women due to potential toxicity; although it is rare, it still would not be advised.

  • Nutmeg can react with certain medications that you might be taking, so be sure to consult with your doctor before starting this natural remedy.
