Traditional Uses: Traditionally used in Unani, ancient Egyptian, and traditional European medicine for centuries to treat diarrhea, dysentery, chronic cough, insomnia, premature ejaculation, and as a nutritive tonic and mild sedative.
Potential Benefits: Rich in essential minerals (manganese, copper, calcium) and healthy fatty acids; may promote digestive health, support bone strength, and provide pain-relieving, soothing, and sleep-inducing effects due to trace alkaloids.
Warnings: Avoid large quantities and poppy seed tea during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as it contains trace opiates that can be passed to the infant. It may also cause positive drug tests (morphine/codeine) for up to 48 hours, and unwashed seeds can cause severe toxicity, addiction, or fatal overdose.
