DESCRIPTION: The spice nutmeg may have a relatively narrow margin of safety. There are also potentially toxic compounds in certain types of cinnamon. See my last video Update on Cinnamon for Blood Sugar Control (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/update-on-cinnamon-for-blood-sugar-control/).

You can also overdo other healthful plant foods if you consume too much of the yellow curry spice turmeric (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/oxalates-in-cinnamon/), drink too much tea (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/overdosing-on-tea/), eat too much soy (http://nutritionfacts.org/2013/02/19/how-much-soy-is-too-much/), too much seaweed (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/avoiding-iodine-deficiency-2/), too many broccoli sprouts (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-much-broccoli-is-too-much/), and even too many raw cruciferous vegetables (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/overdosing-on-greens/).

One more video in this three part series on the safety of spices in The Safety of Tarragon (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-safety-of-tarragon/) next.

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dont-eat-too-much-nutmeg/ and he'll try to answer it!
