How to identify poppy shells and berries
What's a poppy shell
The opium poppy shell, also known as the "shell of rice", commonly known as the "shell of rice", is a dry, mature fruit shell of the opium poppy. In the autumn, ripe fruit, which has been removed from the slurry, will be removed, the seeds and branches removed and dried up。
The shape is elliptical or bottle-shaped, most of which has broken into pieces, with yellow, light brown to light purple, smooth, slightly glitter, and cuts, vertical or horizontal. At the top, there are 6 to 14 radioactive columns in the form of discs; the base has short handles. Light, soft. Light yellow inside, light. There are vertically arranged false diaphragms, brown yellow, small tan spots, fragrances and bitter tastes。
Main components of opium poppy shells and hazards
Poppy shells contain bioalkalin substances such as morphine, codeine, poppy alkaline, tibaine and nacotine. Of these, three compounds, morphine, codeine and opium poppy, contained a high level of opium poppy shells。
Compared to opium, heroin, “toxic substances” in the opium poppy shell, although of small content and not of high purity, also include more than 30 bioalkalis, including morphine, codeine, nacotine and poppy alkaline. For “addicts”, the use of opium poppy hulls is of little use, but for the vast majority of people who have never been exposed to drugs, especially those who are highly sensitive to drugs, the “power” is not insignificant. After eating, these people produce, to a greater or lesser extent, light pleasure, expressed biologically, some may have a slightly red face, others may have an accelerated heart rate, others may be prone to slumber and others may not be easy to sleep. Even people who are not sensitive to drugs are bound to be dependent if they consume the food added to the opium poppy shell over a long period of time. The chronic consumption of these foods can be characterized by cold, sweaty, weak, yellow and thin; in serious cases, it can cause damage to the nervous system, the digestive system or even endocrine disorders, leading to addiction, a potential drug-absorbing tendency and a very bad impact on society。
Distinction between poppy shells and grasshoppers
The fruit of the grass is of two slightly sharp elliptical shapes, with a slightly triangulated transect, and has a number of grooves that are condensed. It contains dozens of seeds gathered in clusters of small, altruistic black stones。
The opium poppy, on the other hand, is very different in appearance from grassfruit. The poppy fruit is round and smooth, as if it were a jar containing seeds like millet. And at the top of it, with a flatten, the edge is radioactive and it looks like a crown. The pillars of opium poppy are in fact united. When the poppy fruit matures, a hole will be broken under the “roast” from which brown rice seeds fall。
Poppy shells have a smooth surface with a typical “roast” structure and internal brown seeds。
