Poppy Husk: Overview
Poppy Husk, commonly referred to as Posta Dana Chhal or Poppy Pod Husk, is the dried outer covering of the poppy seed (Papaver somniferum). Once the seeds are extracted, the remaining husk is collected and sun-dried. Though milder than raw opium or seeds, the husk retains trace alkaloids such as morphine and codeine, which give it mild sedative, analgesic, and antispasmodic properties. Traditionally in rural India and some Eastern regions, poppy husk has been brewed into teas or decoctions to relieve insomnia, diarrhea, or muscular pain.However, its usage is controversial and often falls under regulated substances in many countries due to the presence of opiate residues. In herbal and ethnobotanical circles, it is considered useful when used responsibly, but improper or excessive use can lead to dependency. Proper guidance and adherence to local laws are crucial when handling or consuming poppy husk.
