Did you know that there are two known cases of someone dying from a nutmeg overdose?

Nutmeg, when consumed in large quantities, has psychedelic effects. The first reported case of nutmeg intoxication occurred in 1576, when a pregnant English woman ingested 10 or 12 nutmeg nuts. In addition to producing hallucinations, nutmeg intoxication also results in nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and delirium lasting several days.

But the unpleasantness of the trip hasn’t deterred some, usually “persons with limited access to other drugs,” from using nutmeg recreationally. In Illinois, there were thirty-two documented cases of nutmeg poisoning over a ten year period—fifteen of them intentional. And in at least two cases, the nutmeg user has died.
