iT DIDN'T SHOW "JUST AS LETHAL AS ALCOHOL".

If you look closely, it's on the same line as the "less lethal" .

Effects:
Possible nausea during first hour; may cause vomiting or diarrhea in isolated cases. Takes anywhere from one to five hours for effects to set in. Then expect severe cottonmouth, flushing of skin, severely bloodshot eyes, dilated pupils. Personally I compare it to a very, very heavy hash buzz. "Intense sedation". Impaired speech and motor functions. Hallucinations uncommon in average (5-10 gm) doses. Generally followed by long, deep, almost coma-like sleep (expect 16 hours of sleep afterward) and feelings of lethargy after sleep. May cause constipation, water retention. Safrole is carcinogenic and toxic to the liver.(a great resource)
sounds just like bars (alprazolam, (xanax:mrgreen:))

If you were to eat the nutmeg, what kind? Would ground nutmeg work or is there some other kind?
Dude, just avoid the Nutmeg. The high is not the least bit enjoyable.

Not only that, but the amount to get you high is toxic...it damages your liver.

Mk?

nutmeg tastes like bum (No i dont know what that tastes like). I have tried nutmeg and i dont beleive the experience is worth the awful taste lol. It would be cool if there was an easy way to synthesize the active chemicals.

mystica, i've drank a gram of nutmeg dround into tea, well it didnt really disolve like i wante it to. the taste isnt that bad, i think mushrooms are worse, and the mind games are pretty fun. i have only done it once and i will stick to mushrooms but it was an allright experience for the most part.

First of all, fuck eating nutmeg, I have never heard of this till now. If it can do those damages to your liver and kidneys screw that. This is seriously one of the stupidest thing I've heard. I'd rather drink a beer a smoke kind bud. And if you can't smoke weed or whatever, don't fucking eat nutmeg, that stupid.

Unless you're an adventurous psychonaut, stay away from the nutmeg. I've never done it, and do not intend on trying it. Although it's a possibility that I might, for reasons already stated here, I will keep my distance for a very long time.

The liver is unable to filter out most of the active alkaloids of nutmeg (which is toxic in relatively low doses). People taking MAOIs should stay the hell away from it, as I'm sure that it will probably kill you. Aside from the negative physical effects of nutmeg toxicity, I see no entheogenic benefit to it. It doesn't clarify your mind, it just seems to confuse it; it seems more like a mild deleriant to me, and I've had my fill of such substances (atropa alkaloids, dimenhydrinate, et cetera).

I've swallowed datura before. And I keep my distance. That should tell you something. ;)

Nutmeg Is Better If In Whole Seed Form. Then Use A Small Grader To Take Off As Much As U Want. All Oils Are In Nutmeg Bean. Lonehippie

I ate about 3 tablespoons of nutmeg before, and it really didnt do anything. I felt kinda sick for about 2 days, but nothing 2 bad. After about 5 hours i felt a little bit weird and a little more tired, but i could hardly notice that. Bottom line just dont do nutmeg. Not to mention it tastes like shit. I was gonna try to eat about 5 tablespoons my 2nd time, but i couldnt even eat 1 tablespoon becuz i spit the rest of the shit out.

Wow. According to Erowid you can expect to sleep for 16 hours. That's too fucking much sleep.

cocaine just as lethal as alchohol :confused: that is crazy
I hate cocaine. I've never done it, but all the people I know that do it are trendy asswipes who admire celebrities.

I tried to quit smoking newports and weed, temporarily cuz I am looking for a new job, so, I got bored and just wanted to smoke something, so i packed sage, poppy seeds and nutmeg into my bowl and
I got pretty high... I thought maybe it was psychological, but.... I don't think so. I think the sage is just a filler.. its really the poppy seeds and nutmeg. But, anyway... I'm feelin pretty good right now

It works, just the reward might not be worth the effort, here's some more info from Erowid (a great resource)


You can find some trip reports on nutmeg here: Erowid Experience Vaults: Nutmeg Main Index
Great post!

One thing about ethno-botanicals is the fact that many of them have been unexplored by Western Civilization. Most things that are foreign to our bodies we try to reject by the most common objection as the gag reflux, inducing vomiting of course! It all depends on the individual whether they can tolerate the taste and the digestive process following after wards.

As they say: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION ;)
