Do you mind telling me more about nutmeg and blood pressure?

Ive never heard of this before and now am very interested

Here's the article where I learned what I know about the interesting health-related properties of nutmeg!

Relevant bits quoted:

Traditional mincemeat contains a lot of nutmeg, which can be a hallucinogen (causing nightmares, for instance) -- and which would be extracted by hot oil or fat. Normally, you'd have to take a larger-than-culinary dose to see an effect, but I know someone who got nutmeg poisoning (delirium, horrible headaches) from a quiche -- because it hadn't been properly blended, so all the nutmeg from the batch ended up in her slice.

In addition to the possibility of similar mistakes, I just realized something. Nutmeg's active ingredient, myristicin, is a Monoamine oxidase inhibitor, or MAOI. As medications, MAOIs are used as anti-depressants, but very cautiously -- because they have dangerous interactions with certain foods, drinks, and other drugs.

I do recommend the entire article for a bit of US food history information, particularly about mince pies.
