Because the dried daylily itself is non-toxic, even if it is not cooked, it will generally not cause poisoning symptoms when ingested in the body. Colchicine, which is harmful to human body, is easily eliminated in the process of steaming and drying, so there is no substance that can cause human poisoning in immature dry day lily.

However, in order to make the dried day lily more colorful and have a longer shelf life, some merchants may smoke the dried day lily with chemicals such as sulfur. If the sulfur dioxide residue in dried day lily exceeds the standard, it will be harmful to human body after eating, so try to cook it before eating.

How long does it take to soak the dried daylily before it is cooked? It takes about two and a half hours.

When dealing with dried daylily, it is recommended to soak it in warm water for about half an hour, mainly to remove odor and impurities, then pour off the soaked water and pick off the still hard top.

Then pour cold water into the basin, soak the soaked day lily for about two hours, and take it out after the day lily absorbs enough water and swells and softens. Finally, the soaked daylily is cleaned and dried, and it is basically processed and can be cooked in the pot.

Can you heal yourself after eating day lily poisoning? Generally not. It is recommended to seek medical advice as soon as possible.

Because colchicine, a toxic component produced by day lily after entering the human body, is generally difficult to be eliminated by the immune system, and it is usually difficult to heal itself after day lily poisoning. It is recommended to seek the help of a doctor.

Day lily poisoning is a kind of food poisoning. Generally, the colchicine it contains is oxidized into toxic colchicine after entering the gastrointestinal tract. After colchicine poisoning, people are prone to nausea and vomiting. If the poisoning is deep, the symptoms will be more serious. Go to the hospital at this time.

Taboos for eating day lilies generally have no special taboos, but some people suggest eating less.

1. Asthma patients are advised to eat less: Asthma patients need to pay attention to a light diet, and eat less foods that are too salty or too sweet, while day lily may bring discomfort to asthma patients and is not recommended.

2, people with gastrointestinal discomfort suggest eating less: day lily is rich in dietary fiber, which will promote gastrointestinal peristalsis after intake, and people with gastrointestinal dysfunction may cause discomfort after eating.
