Nutmeg can turn a cozy drink into a nightmare

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

Your cozy fall latte spice is secretly a chaotic narcotic. Nutmeg contains a compound called myristicin, which in large doses acts as a deliriant. Instead of a fun trip, a nutmeg overdose triggers aggressive nausea, extreme dehydration, and horrifying psychological distress that can last for two days. It is the absolute worst way to get high, turning your pumpkin spice season into a literal nightmare.
