    Next day update.

    He tripped all night, threw up, and has been in the hospital for 8 hours. His heart rate was up to 192 and almost went into cardiac arrest.

    Wow. Don't do this. Ever.

    "Large doses of 7.5 g or more are dangerous, potentially inducing convulsions, palpitations, nausea, eventual dehydration, and generalized body pain. In amounts of 1.0 g or more it is a mild to medium hallucinogen, producing visual distortions and a mild euphoria." "A risk in any large-quantity ingestion of nutmeg is the sudden onset of Nutmeg Psychosis, an acute psychiatric disorder marked by hallucinations, excitement, thought disorder, a sense of impending death and agitation. Some cases have resulted in hospitalization and reportedly few who have experienced the effects of nutmeg poisoning recommend it or repeat the experience. "

    I've heard that too. I've been told it contains hallucinogenic properties, that if taken a large amount you will get high, but who really wants to eat or drink that much nutmeg?

    This fellow seems to have made himself pretty silly on nutmeg. But it made him nauseous before it made him silly. It might not be worth it.

    I have heard that you can get a high from nutmeg and think you are meant to smoke it.

    I heard that from someone (very close to me) that had been in prison. He says that it works, and they used it all the time in jail.

    I can tell you that it tastes really bad, and didn't do anything for me!

    I am curious about the herbal smoke products you can find on some websites. Like here: http://www.drugtest-solutions.com/herbal_smoke.htm
