Nutmeg has been known to improve skin condition and reduce the signs of ageing. Not only can it reduce inflammation of the skin, but it also improves skin hydration and elasticity, keeping wrinkles, fine lines and sagginess at bay. Being both antibacterial and antifungal, nutmeg can help in various skin conditions, including acne.
Digestive health can be greatly enhanced by the consumption of nutmeg. Several components of it have been known to inhibit gas and to prevent gastritis, while providing smoother digestion and regulating bowel movements.
