Nutmeg has a reputation for being an aphrodisiac but it is also larvacidal and antiparasitic. It is carminative and aids digestion as well as elimination. Because Nostradamus used nutmeg to induce trance, nutmeg has often been used as a mental tonic as well as aid lucid dreaming and induce altered states of consciousness. It also aids sleep.
Nutmeg combines well with other oils from spices, such as cloves and ginger, as well as other mental oils like rosemary. If the taste is too intense, try adding Blood Orange Essential Oil.
