Herbs and spices – Nutmeg

You most likely already have nutmeg if you like to bake or make desserts. It’s a spice that shows up on most commonly used spices lists, but few know that it actually provides benefits to the body.

Nutmeg has detoxifying properties, which is why it is used as an ingredient in many detox beverages and cleansing programs. It can spur the liver to expel toxins and helps expunge the kidneys of impurities.

It can also be used to help you fall asleep, and as a natural remedy for many everyday digestive problems that typically get treated with an over-the-counter medication.
