Watch out for recipes with these 5 spices in them! They can be lethal if you use too much!

SUMMARY:
Nutmeg contains a compound called myristicin, which in high doses can have hallucinogenic effects and be toxic to the central nervous system.

Sassafras contains safrole, a compound that was once used in the production of root beer flavoring. Safrole has been shown to be a potential carcinogen in animal studies, and its use as a flavoring agent in foods and beverages has been banned by regulatory authorities in many countries.

Cinnamon contains a compound called coumarin, which in large amounts can be toxic to the liver. High levels of coumarin consumption have been linked to liver damage.

Mustard Seeds contain compounds like allyl isothiocyanate, which in large amounts can cause irritation to the digestive system and potentially lead to gastrointestinal distress, nausea, and vomiting.

Chili Peppers contains capsaicin, the compound responsible for the heat in chili peppers, and could lead to intense gastrointestinal discomfort, including nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
