A beautiful herbal medicine, but a poisonous plant.

Hello friends. Friends, when I was roaming in my field, I saw a plant. I saw it after a long time. It is visible on the empty land, on the sides of the foil drains at the edges of the fields. It can be found anywhere in our country. I saw it on the side of the field, and my attention was drawn to it because of its beautiful flower. The flower is completely yellow, and its stamens look like a red dot in the middle. It was looking very beautiful. It is summer here, and the flowers blooming in such heat were attracting attention.

Perhaps it might be showing its beauty to attract flies and kites. Friends, our local people know this medicinal plant by the name of “Bilayat”. In Hindi it is called "Satyanasi". I googled it and found out its English name is "Mexican Prickly Poppy". There are thorns on the entire part of this plant, when we used to walk through the fields in childhood, they used to prick our feet, so we used to walk from a distance when we saw it. It seems that nature must have given it these thorns for protection. So let us see, what are its medicinal properties and its benefits. Friends, this is a medicine but a poisonous plant.

When its leaves are broken, golden yellow secretion comes out from it. Its seeds are quite poisonous. Its secretion is disinfectant and virus killer. It is used in many skin disorders. It is used for quick healing of wounds on our body. It is very useful in any old wound, ringworm, scabies and itching. Experienced people in the village use it, they have been doing it for many years. Therefore they have knowledge of its quantity and time. Using it without guidance can be fatal. It is advisable to use it only with an experienced Ayurvedic expert. Nature has helped us through many plants. Simply, for this it is necessary to have knowledge of it. Thank you.🙏
