Nutmeg is a spice that is widely used in cooking. Spices are also inherent in narcological properties, if you use a nut in large doses. This is due to the presence of methylene dioxide-substituted substances in the composition of nutmeg, which are used for the manufacture of prohibited psychotropic drugs. Two or three fruits are enough for a person to have hallucinations, euphoria and other signs of drug intoxication.
Nutmeg is the fruit of an evergreen tree (nutmeg) that grows in the countries of the equatorial belt. In India, nutmeg for its properties has received the name "stupefying fruit." In the US, it is used instead of marijuana. As a narcotic, nutmeg has gained popularity due to its wide availability: the spice can be easily bought at any grocery store. In small quantities, it is safe for health, with the use of two or three fruits, a narcotic effect is manifested.
Psychoactive components are contained in the kernel of the nut and in its peel. These include:
In the process of metabolism, the toxic substances of nutmeg are modified into the active components of ecstasy, LSD and amphetamine. They adversely affect the liver, quickly destroying it, and change consciousness when taken in large doses. To prepare a hallucinogenic extract, ground nutmeg is used, which is poured with alcohol. Many drug addicts get high by eating simply grated fruits.

A person is characterized by talkativeness, causeless laughter, eyes redden. After a few hours, drowsiness and lethargy develop. In case of an overdose, severe health disorders appear that can lead to death - in narcology, deaths have been noted after consuming 80-100 grams of fruit.

Practical psychologist Experience - 8 years
Nutmeg, or nutmeg, is a large seed of the nutmeg tree, a common fragrant spice. But not everyone uses it for this purpose: due to the hallucinogenic effect, nutmeg has become a popular "kitchen" drug, which is used by lovers of an affordable and legal "high".
The benefits of nutmeg were revealed back in the days of the Ancient World: the seed was ground and added to food, used as a flavoring and aphrodisiac. In the 12th century, the plant was brought to Europe, and it gained worldwide popularity.
Modern application:
Now the main area of \u200b\u200bapplication of nutmeg is cooking
Muskatnik attracts not only doctors and culinary specialists - among surfactant lovers it is known as a legal psychotropic drug.
The narcological properties of nutmeg are explained by its composition - the fruit contains myricistin, safrole and elemicin. It is these chemical compounds that are used to create the synthetic substance MMDA, a powerful hallucinogen and euphoretic from the amphetamine class.
After taking the nut, the components of the fetus enter the liver through the blood, where, under the influence of enzymes, they are modified and converted into MMDA. Processing occurs gradually, so the psychoactive effect of the seeds can only be felt at a high dosage - and not earlier than after 2-3 hours.
After being converted into MMDA, the substance enters the bloodstream and is delivered through the vessels to the brain. There, it acts on the serotonin receptor subfamily that governs visual and auditory perception. This is how the drug causes hallucinations.
In terms of its psychological effects, nutmeg is similar to cannabis - American studies in 2016 found that the active substances in the seeds interact with the endocannabinoid system of the brain, causing mild euphoria and high spirits.
A few hours after use, the psychotropic drug begins to act. A person's eyelids and mucous membranes of the eyes turn red, mood improves and bouts of laughter begin. The addict sees persistent hallucinations and other visual distortions: blurry pictures, glare, light trails.
The perception of space and time is also distorted - a person feels the unreality of what is happening. He has difficulty controlling his body, bumps into objects, walks aimlessly around the city for hours, can cause an accident or an accident.
Susceptibility increases - the sensations from music, dance, creativity and communication seem unusually bright. The person becomes relaxed and friendly, talks a lot. At the same time, the functions of speech are violated - the addict cannot clearly pronounce and logically connect words.
The nut addict also perceives negative emotions more sharply. Life problems may seem more serious, and sadness and longing develop into severe depression with thoughts of suicide.
The narcotic effect of the nut lasts from several hours to 2-3 days.
Among the side effects of taking it are convulsions, nausea and diarrhea, excessive sweating and dehydration. And regular abuse of nutmeg seriously affects the health of the whole organism:
In what cases is a nut dangerous to life:
Most of the curious, having tried the "artisanal" hallucinogen for the first time, refuse it forever - unpleasant side effects in the form of nausea, fever, weakness, panic attacks and pain quickly turn away from the thirst for a "legal high".
negative feedback on use
barely saved after consumption
negative feedback on use
But the plant also has many admirers - "hazels". Usually these are those who were immediately "lucky" to guess the right dosage, and the narcotic effect of the nut was more pronounced than the side effects.
Such people quickly develop a persistent psychological dependence on the hallucinogen. After vivid visions and heightened perception, reality seems gray and monotonous, so the addict is in a hurry to take a new dose.

NutmegGENERAL INFORMATION
Nutmeg is an evergreen tree up to 20 m from the Muscat family, a typical plant of the equatorial belt. It blooms all year round from 5-6 years. Fruiting persists up to 40 years. From 3 to 10 thousand nuts are harvested from one tree per year.
The fruit of the nutmeg is similar in appearance to a peach; when ripe, it begins to crack into 2 parts. The pulp is massive, sour in taste. The fruit contains a large seed, protected by a hard shell and covered with a fleshy seed (muscat color). The sun-dried seedling is fragile, fragrant, orange-yellow in color. After removing the seedling, the seeds are subjected to fire drying, split and the kernel is removed (this is nutmeg). The aroma of Muscat is slightly spicy, the taste is weak at first, and later strongly spicy.
Active substances: Methylene dioxide-substituted compounds:
Myristicin is an amine-free precursor of 3-methoxy-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine (M-MDA), elemicin and safrole is an amine-free precursor of 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA). These and other aromatic fractions combine synergistically to create a psychotropic effect. Terpenes improve absorption.
Culinary Uses: Grated nutmeg is used in small amounts (sometimes in combination with other spices) to add flavor to puddings, milk sweets, and vegetable dishes. Pairs very well with spinach and winter squash. It is better to grate the nut directly into the dish, because, grated, it quickly loses its flavor. Whole or ground nuts should be stored in an airtight container. Like many spices, it stimulates digestion and cures chronic rhinitis.

PSYCHOACTIVE PROPERTIES
The nut begins to act only 2-3 hours after its use, and the effect can last up to a day or longer.
In terms of effects, the nut partly resembles marijuana, partly alcohol, partly other substances. Strange thoughts and troubles are characteristic, music is pleasantly perceived, differentiation of feelings improves, time can slow down, often you want to engage in creative activities, various mystical experiences are possible, sometimes uncontrollable laughter, talkativeness or “freezing” of the psychonaut. In large doses, tactile and auditory hallucinations, a feeling of flying with eyes closed, confusion of thoughts are possible. At the end of the trip, and especially the next day, drowsiness and lethargy are characteristic.
NUT SELECTION, USE AND DOSAGE
There are ground nuts on sale in packs (in almost any large grocery store, in the spice department) and whole nuts (sold in the markets by non-Slavic people who sell spices). It is preferable to take whole nuts, because. in ground, during long-term storage, psychoactive properties weaken and for a similar effect it is necessary to use a larger amount of it compared to whole ones. The more dark substance on the cut, the stronger the nut. Walnut must be free of mold. And the main criterion is the bitter taste. The more baked the nut, the greater its strength. There are round and oblong nuts (IMHO the latter are stronger).
The usual dosage for a whole nut is 10-20 grams (from 2 to 4 whole nuts), for ground (in packs) from 20 to 40 grams.
Whole nuts must be crushed as finely as possible (preferably into powder) in any way possible (because the nut is hard and it is extremely problematic to chew it). Chopped (or pack ground) nuts are added to any edible liquid (yogurt or kefir is best), stir and drink / eat this gruel on an empty stomach.
The effect of nutmeg can be enhanced with a small amount of alcohol (a bottle of beer a couple of hours after taking the nut), coffee, grass.
SIDE EFFECTS AND COMBAT THEM
1. Severe redness of the eyes and a feeling of "sand in the eyes." The phenomenon is extremely characteristic and occurs in almost 100% of cases of mitotic application of nuts (1-5 nuts). This side effect is reduced by naphthyzine (2 drops in each eye - use only a sterile freshly opened solution of 0.05% - 0.1%), vizin (similarly - 2 drops each), a small dose of weak alcohol for 12-15 hours of mitot. This phenomenon is less pronounced with the combined use of nutmeg and hemp. In addition, the eyes often swell and the next day looks like after a week of hard drinking.
2. Increase in body temperature. Do not be afraid - at large doses - this is normal and burns a bunch of toxins - at the same time clean yourself up. Just dress warmly and take a hot shower or bath. (you can also “coffee with milk and cocoa with tea”). An increase in temperature is sharply enhanced by tropane alkaloids.
3. Constipation, weakening of the bladder muscle. The phenomena are very temporary and not worthy of special attention, except in cases of diseases of the internal organs that the psychonaut has, but then it is better for him not to use this method of psychomodulation.
4. Due to the action of nutmeg, which weakens the secretory function of the stomach and intestines, there may be disturbances in the digestion of food, especially protein, during the trip. Undigested food residues have a toxic effect on the liver and immune system. To prevent such troubles, it is enough to use substitutes for your own digestive enzymes during meals (drugs like Festal, Digestal) and add ginger and dill to the nut mixture.
5. At a sufficiently high dose (more than 15 grams of a strong nut), orthostatic disturbances in the regulation of blood pressure are possible, manifested by dizziness and pre-syncope. This side effect occurs when standing up after sitting, lying down, or bending over for a sufficiently long time. This is due to the slowing down of the normal blood redistribution reflex in different positions of the body. To avoid the effect of getting up and generally changing the position of the body vertically, it is necessary SLOWLY. If you feel faint, quickly lean forward and hold for 10-15 seconds, then slowly straighten up. The tension of the abdominal muscles accelerates the process of normalization of well-being.
6. Muscat is characterized by dryness in the mouth.
7. In the case of taking large doses, there may be a violation of coordination of movements.
Muscat is widely used in cooking, medicine, perfumery. It is used as a spicy spice, a source of essential oils, flavoring.
The spice contains vitamins B, C, E, PP, pantothenic acid, essential macro- and microelements, unsaturated fatty acids.
When using nutmeg in small quantities, a therapeutic effect is achieved, the functioning of the digestive tract improves, metabolic processes in the body normalize, the condition of the skin and hair improves, insomnia disappears, problems with sexual weakness in men disappear.
What does nutmeg look like and why does it cause a narcotic effect? It is a hard fruit of light brown color, oval shape, with a sweetish aroma.
The intoxicating effect of the nut arises from the content of psychoactive compounds, which, when broken down in the liver, lead to the formation of MMDA. Such metabolites have a similar effect with, cause the appearance of visual and auditory hallucinations, impaired perception, and motor disorders.
Nutmeg - useful properties and contraindications:
It is contraindicated to consume nutmeg during pregnancy, as it increases the risk of spontaneous abortion. You can not add seasoning to food with mental disorders, epilepsy, individual intolerance to the product.
To avoid narcological effects, it is enough to consume no more than 3-10 g of nutmeg per day.
If the dosage is exceeded, liver function worsens, psychomotor disorders, signs of intoxication of the body occur.
Nutmeg as used due to the content of psychoactive substances.
The composition of the spice contains myristicin, safrole and elemicin. Chemical components cause a hallucinogenic, stimulating effect on the central nervous system.
Myristicin is a structural formula of one of the psychoactive active ingredients of nutmeg
The concentration of psychedelics in nutmeg depends on the type of nut, growing and storage conditions.
On average, 20 grams of seasoning contains:
Myristicin inhibits the conduction of nerve impulses responsible for the contractility of the smooth muscles of the intestines and lungs.
Under the influence of safrole, the emotional state changes, consciousness becomes clouded, a feeling of euphoria appears or, conversely, anxiety increases, depression intensifies.
To achieve a psychotropic effect, drug addicts use 2-3 nuts or use ground seasoning, but it has a weaker effect.
One tablespoon of powder is enough for the appearance of euphoria, hallucinations, nausea, dry mouth.
With prolonged use of nutmeg, the body's tolerance to toxins increases and a constant increase in dosage is required.
The onset of intoxication occurs faster with the simultaneous use of nutmeg with energy drinks, sour-milk products, potatoes, alkaline mineral water.
Narcotic properties are enhanced by mixing seasoning with strong coffee, but such a cocktail has a very strong effect on the functioning of the cardiovascular system.
In order for nutmeg to show a stronger effect, mixtures with the addition of fennel, star anise, bay leaf, walnut, parsley seeds, and zaire are used.
These herbs contain components that have a similar effect to myristicin. After sobering up, a person is tormented by severe thirst, vomiting, and pain in the abdomen. Poor health can persist for 7 days.
If nutmeg has been used as a drug in large quantities, the following symptoms may occur:
Drug intoxication after eating nutmeg occurs after 4-8 hours and lasts up to 2 days. Due to the long onset of the effect, a person can increase the dose, which is dangerous for the development of severe complications.
Muscat, when taken systematically, exhibits a hypotactic and neurotoxic effect, destroys liver cells, disrupts the functioning of the nervous system, and increases the risk of cancerous tumors.
Abuse of nutmeg causes erectile dysfunction in men, hormonal disorders, infertility, menstrual irregularities, miscarriages in women.
The skin acquires a greasy sheen, acne appears, the condition of hair and nails worsens, the organs of the digestive and cardiovascular systems suffer.
