1. poisonous snakes should not be drunk in disorder: cobra, bamboo leaf green and other poisonous snakes are very toxic, so the medicinal liquor soaked with them can neither be easily taken orally nor used externally. Snake venom can penetrate into the skin and affect renal function. Some snakes have unknown toxicity and can be life-threatening. The so-called poisonous snakes are good for people's health, which is just a folk saying and has no scientific basis. So don't make wine with poisonous snakes.
The venom of the poisonous snake is in its teeth. When it attacks the enemy, it will secrete venom from its teeth, and the venom will invade human blood along the wound and paralyze people's nerves. Before soaking in wine, the poisonous snake has stimulated the poisonous snake to store the venom, and then locked the teeth on the rim of the cup, and the venom will flow out along the rim of the cup, and then the fangs will be pulled out, so it is harmless. As we all know, poisonous snakes are poisonous. Actually, poison refers to snake venom, not meat. There are poisonous snakes, and there are a pair of poisonous glands on the upper jaw, and the two teeth are connected. Teeth are hollow. When a snake bites, it injects venom into the human body from its teeth. The poisonous snakes used for brewing wine are strictly processed. The most important thing is to remove teeth and poisonous glands, followed by cleaning internal organs for food or medicine. In fact, snake meat is also slightly poisonous, but it is not the kind of poison with snake venom. Just like scorpions are poisonous, there is a poisonous gland at the tip of the tail, which can be eaten and used as medicine after removal.

According to their introduction, snake wine does have the effects of expelling wind and dredging collaterals, promoting blood circulation and relieving pain, detoxifying and relieving convulsions, and strengthening the body. However, due to the different toxicity and efficacy of various snakes, various snake wines also have different effects, and they are not a panacea. Agkistrodon halys, Agkistrodon acutus, Bungarus multicinctus, Cobra and Phyllostachys pubescens are all highly poisonous snakes, so we should be extra cautious when making wine with poisonous snakes, and pay attention to strict scientific processing. Generally speaking, when making wine, you should first remove the head, tail and poison sac, instead of just soaking a few pieces. Generally, it is more appropriate to soak two or three kinds of snakes with the same toxicity, and then soak them in high-quality liquor with a temperature of more than 50 degrees. It takes more than half a month to completely eliminate the toxic protein decomposition toxicity of poisonous snakes and become snake wine with certain offensive effect. It is advisable to take 25.5 ml (2 tablespoons) of snake wine each time. Obviously, the street selling live poisonous snakes to soak in wine has not been scientifically processed, and exaggerated advertisements mislead consumers and are harmful to human health after drinking.
4。 Because snake venom is an active protease. This active protease will lose its activity as long as it is treated under the following conditions: ① high temperature100℃; ② Strong oxidation; ③ The concentration of organic solvent is high. One of the main components of Guling pure rice wine is ethanol, which is recognized as a good organic solvent with good permeability and easy to enter the tissues and cells of snake venom, dissolving most water-soluble substances and organic substances that cannot be dissolved in water but must be dissolved in polar organic solvents. Generally, in rice wine containing 40% ethanol, active protease will lose its activity, and at the same time, it can delay the hydrolysis of many drugs and enhance the stability of drugs. Therefore, drinking the wine made of poisonous snakes will not be poisoned. On the contrary, wine will turn poison into treasure after dissolution and become one of the good medicines for treating rheumatism, bone pain and arthritis. After drinking the health wine processed by poisonous snakes, you can use rice wine above 40℃ to process it again, you can add some angelica to remove fishy smell and increase the efficacy, and you can also add some other Chinese herbal medicines according to your own condition. It is not easy to deteriorate for a long time and has no side effects. You can rest assured to drink!
5。 Professor Xie Chongyuan, who has a good knowledge of drugs, is also cautious about medicinal liquor. He said that not everyone is suitable for drinking medicinal liquor, depending on individual human differences. Because most medicinal liquor is pungent and dry, it is easy to turn fire into liquid. Some patients with hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, peptic ulcer, epilepsy, cardiac insufficiency, chronic nephritis and chronic colitis are not suitable for taking medicated wine. People who are allergic to alcohol are not suitable for drinking medicinal liquor, and pregnant women should also use medicinal liquor with caution. In addition, young people should not rush to drink nourishing medicinal liquor.
