The only antidote to blood and throat sealing

Bambusa rubra

Blood-sealed throat is the most poisonous tree in the world, and the milky juice is highly toxic. Once it comes into contact with human and animal wounds, it can paralyze the heart, block blood vessels, coagulate blood and even suffocate the poisoned person. In Xishuangbanna, there is a folk saying that bloodletting seals the throat, which is called "seven ups and downs and nine landings". It means that if you are poisoned by bloodletting and throat sealing, you can only take seven steps high and eight steps low, but in any case, you will fall to the ground and die at the ninth step. The whole plant, including its seeds, is poisonous, and the most widely used poison comes from the milky white juice that flows out after its leaves and bark are cut.

Modern toxicological analysis shows that this kind of fruit juice contains a lot of substances such as Crossbones glucoside and blood-sealing glucoside. After these substances enter the blood, they will cause muscle relaxation, blood coagulation, slow heartbeat, etc., and eventually lead to cardiac arrest and death. If you accidentally get it in your eyes, your eyes are in danger of blindness. Because the blood seal throat milk is highly toxic, ancient hunting tribes often smeared the juice of this plant on arrows to shoot their prey, and the animals that were shot basically had no possibility of survival.

Although throat sealing is highly toxic, eating this animal poisoned by throat sealing will not cause harm to human body, because the toxin of throat sealing mainly works through the blood circulation system, not the digestive system.
