We think many residents of our latitudes have heard about the beneficial properties of nutmeg oil. The nutmeg or muscat tree plant is a genus of evergreen trees that are native to tropical climates. Currently, science knows nine species of the plant. Since ancient times, people have used nutmeg in various areas.

Nutmeg has gained special importance due to its distinctive properties, as well as chemical composition. Nutmeg fruits are enriched with complex biologically active compounds that have an intoxicating effect on the human body. Nutmeg is considered a product that is capable of having a psychotropic or stupefying effect on humans.

For this reason, people used the fruits of nutmeg in antiquity and continue to use in some religions and cults now when performing ritual rituals. In addition, nutmeg is included in the list of the most widespread and world famous spices. To make the spice, nutmeg fruits are dried and then ground to a powder state.

Based on nutmeg, valuable vegetable oil is obtained, which belongs to expensive products. It is worth noting that the chemical composition, as well as the properties of nutmeg oil, will depend on the starting material and the method of production of the product.

In cooking, nutmeg oil is usually used in the manufacture of canned products, as well as confectionery, sweets and pastries.

Most often, nutmeg oil acts as a flavoring agent in the food industry. In addition, muscat oil is used in cosmetology primarily to impart a characteristic smell to cosmetics, as well as additional useful characteristics. Typically, muscat oil is used to create so-called oriental compositions or aromas. For thousands of years, muscat oil has been used in folk medicine, as well as armoatherapy. Nutmeg oil helps to "warm" muscles, as well as ligaments and joints.
