USE A BIT OF NUTMEG IN YOUR COOKING
1. Nutmeg is rich in important trace elements such as potassium and calcium, which are good for normalising blood pressure and your bones.
2. It contains some vitamin A, which is essential for healthy eyes and vision, and vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that your body needs to make collagen.
3. Nutmeg is a good source of magnesium, which the body needs for a healthy heart and blood pressure.
4. There’s phosphorus too, which keep bones healthy – helpful for osteoporosis or arthritis.
5. Nutmeg contains a small amount of folate, a B vitamin essential for an unborn baby.
