what is Nutmeg extract?

 

Nutmeg extract is a concentrated natural active ingredient produced from the dried kernel of the nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) plant using modern processes such as spray drying. It mainly contains volatile oils (myristyl ether, eugenol, etc.), polyphenolic compounds, and antioxidant lignin.

Its form is mostly a brownish-yellow powder, easily soluble in water, and retains the original plant's medicinal and edible properties.

 

nutmeg extract benefits:

 

1. Digestive Health

Volatile oils stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa, enhance digestive juice secretion, and relieve bloating and loss of appetite.

 

2. Antibacterial Properties

It can inhibit Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, reducing oral inflammation and intestinal infections.

 

3. Neuroregulatory Effects

Small amounts of myristole have a sedative effect, improving anxiety and insomnia, but excessive amounts may cause excitement.
