Common Questions

What are the health benefits of poppy seeds?

Poppy seeds are a good source of essential minerals such as calcium, iron, zinc, and magnesium. They also contain heart-healthy fats and dietary fiber, which can help promote digestive health. Additionally, poppy seeds are rich in antioxidants and have been linked to potential anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties.

Are there any health risks associated with poppy seeds?

Poppy seeds contain small amounts of opium alkaloids, which can trigger a positive result on a drug test. However, consuming normal culinary amounts of poppy seeds is unlikely to cause any adverse effects for most people.

How much poppy seed to eat per day?

The recommended daily intake of poppy seeds is no more than 1-2 tablespoons. Consuming excessive amounts of poppy seeds can lead to potential health risks due to their high levels of alkaloids, so it's important to consume them in moderation.

What are the symptoms of a poppy seed allergy?

Symptoms of a poppy seed allergy may include hives, itching, swelling, difficulty breathing, and in severe cases, anaphylaxis. If you suspect an allergy to poppy seeds, it is important to seek medical attention and avoid consuming them.
