Can Nutmeg Numb Nerve Pain?

Diabetes can cause nerve damage which occurs after prolonged high blood glucose in the blood, leading to nerve damage. The condition ‘ Diabetic Neuropathy’ affects up to 70 percent of diabetics.

Symptoms commonly occur in the legs and feet and include:

• Tingling sensation
• Numbness (severe or long-term numbness can become permanent)
• Burning (particularly at night-time)
• Pain

Scientists at the ‘University of West Indies’, are testing a spray which contains nutmeg.

The spray will be applied to patients affected areas 3 times per day over a four-week period. In earlier trials -  nutmeg has already been proven to have anti-inflammatory properties.
