This flower is actually not poisonous; on the contrary, it has many uses, especially for the mind and spirit. If insomnia symptoms appear or the mind is restless, using it for treatment is feasible. In addition, we can also brew it to drink, and in this way the body can become healthier. We can also use it to mix cocktails, and besides that, we can also brew it together with honey and rock sugar to drink.

II. Dependence

1. Although it is not poisonous, there is one thing we need to pay attention to: if we use it to make tea to achieve the effect of treating insomnia, we must not keep taking it when it has no effect. We can only use it to treat relatively mild insomnia; if it is relatively severe, we must not use it.

2. Moreover, if it has no effect and we continue to use it, it will cause people to become dependent on this substance, which will have an impact on health. So if it has no effect, we should go to a professional doctor, or use other methods.

III. Flower toxicity

1. In fact, it itself does not contain toxins, but we know that a substance contained in its flowers can affect the red blood cells present in our body. If we get it into our body by injection, its solubility will be greatly enhanced.

2. If the powder of its flowers enters our respiratory tract, it will also cause coughing and sore throat. So if we encounter its pollen or want to use its pollen to make something, remember to take isolation measures such as wearing a mask.

IV. Pregnancy

Because when a woman is pregnant, some functions of the body will change, and if this flower enters the body it will make her internal heat become severe, and pregnant women will also experience constipation or excessive internal heat, so at this time it is best not to drink the water brewed from it.

V. Stomach and intestines

In fact, this flower brewed in water is not suitable for everyone. Some people with gastrointestinal diseases, as well as people with yin deficiency and wind-heat, and people with insomnia all need to figure out whether they can drink it; and even if they can drink it, they should not drink it for too long.
