Nutmeg




Nutmeg Essential Oil

One of the essential oils I use on a regular basis is nutmeg.  One of the vitality oils, which are safe for consumption, it is one of a group of  oils I rotate as an addition to my herbal bedtime tea.  I drink a senna tea at bedtime into which I add four drops of vitality lavender.  I then add one drop of one of several choices which I rotate by the week.  For example, one week I will add a drop of nutmeg, the next week a drop of cinnamon, the next week a drop of ginger and the next week a drop of rosemary, etc.   This is a routine I feel helps me with inflammation and arthritis type symptoms and enables me to rest well at night.  Some people use nutmeg to sooth their tummy, others to help them rest.  There are many things people use nutmeg for.  I am sure we are all familiar with sprinkling the powdered nutmeg spice on the top of our eggnog.   To read a scientific paper on nutmeg click HERE and to read an article in every day language about the benefits of nutmeg click HERE.  Also enjoy the following short video about nutmeg.
