Nutmeg Benefit #6: Treats Acne
Nutmeg has been part of traditional medicines for a very long time, including those that are used to treat the skin. Nutmeg’s anti-oxidant properties will help to prevent acne from occurring in the first place. In addition, its anti-inflammatory properties can help to relieve the symptoms and improve the sufferer’s physical appearance.
Treatments involve topical applications made from pastes using nutmeg and other ingredients such as honey or milk. The paste should be applied once a day and left on for 20-30 minutes before washing off. Many people feel the paste improves the overall complexion in addition to helping combat acne.
