Mace is called Jatiphala or Jatisasyya in Ayurveda and is prescribed for healing many health conditions. In olden times, Mace was used for stomach disorders and other medical uses. It is now added to soaps and perfumes and is also used as an ingredient for cooking and it smells very much like nutmeg. Traditional Chinese medicine used mace and its oil for treating dysmenorrhea or painful menstruation, abdominal pain, and liver problems. The mace tree grows up to twenty meters in height and a normal tree can bear fruits of more than 50 years. Mace oil was used as a folklore remedy for rheumatic problems, fever, mouth ulcers, insomnia, flatulence, and diarrhea. Nutmeg is a tree that produces nutmeg and mace. Nutmeg is the dried kernel of the seed and mace is the dried aril around it. Dried aril is steam distilled to produce mace oil. The oil pales yellow to reddish yellow and it has a sweet, spicy, and woody under note. That first season of the nutmeg trees usually happens 7 to 9 years after planting and the tree reaches full production after 20 years. Apart from the oil extracted many other commercial products are also produced from the nutmeg trees, like obtained oleoresins and nutmeg butter.
