A Russian tourist in Bali stopped talking and walking after eating a nutmeg.
According to media reports, the woman and her daughter bought spices at the local market. The sellers gave them six nutmegs. After consuming the spice, the Russian developed severe speech and mobility problems.
Nutmeg contains myristicin, which in large doses can cause poisoning, hallucinations, disturbances of consciousness and other neurological symptoms.
That's why this spice is used in small amounts, just a pinch, and not eaten as whole nuts.
