Muskatnød er hallucinogen i store doser; men dosen er alt for tæt på den dødelige dosis, så brugen frarådes.

Myristica fragrans is a large evergreen tree that's fruit contains a large central seed (the nutmeg). It is used as a spice as well as acting as a deliriant if consumed in large quantities. Its effects are long-lasting and are considered unpleasant by most who experience them.

May cause dizziness, flushes, dry mouth, accelerated heartbeat, temporary constipation and difficulty in urination, nausea, and panic. Beneficial as a spice but not recommended in large amounts as a hallucinogen

and is definitely a hepatotoxin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatotoxin) in larger amounts. Due to the severe side-effects, nutmeg is not a popular street drug. It is used most by underage students who are looking for a legal means of altering their consciousness as well as by prisoners who can acquire it more easily than illegal substances.

Fra Sten Larris' side:


Når manden der nærmest bogstaveligt talt har ædt sig gennem alt i den danske natur, siger brug af muskatnød frarådes, frarådes det.

Det skal nævnes at der er et lille mindretal (mig selv inkluderet) som nyder muskatrusen og ikke oplever alle de negative effekter der omtales overalt - trådstarter er måske en af dem.
