Dont eat poppyseeds before delivering..

[sleepinbeauty]

I posted this to my facebook. I had heard of this happening but I thought we were over this particular brand of bullshit!

Honestly, I don't know to believe that or not. I HAVE heard a lot about poppy seeds giving you a positive drug test but one, two, or even three bagels would not have any affect on your system. People used to try to eat poppy seeds to get high, and would have to literally eat buckets lol. So for it to even start to affect your system I would think you would need to eat over a dozen bagels, at least. But thats just from what I've read.

Do you have to feel the effects for it to be present in your system though? There is still heroine in your system, even when you come down from your high, same with most any drug. With alcohol you can feel completely sober and still have measurable levels in your blood.

Im not trying to start a fight, just telling you my opinion that I don't believe that. As far as I know, you do feel the effects of drugs as your coming down from a high & alcohol does take a while to get out of your system but not that long. Its not even about being sober, its about her eating /a bagel/ BEFORE labor, passing it down to her child, and then getting a blood test that says shes on drugs. I find that highly unbelievable.

Sorry? Its not even about getting high off them, its about how much it would take to affect a drug test, which came up positive after this woman gave birth. I don't agree or disagree that you can get high off of them, some people and sites say yes, others say no.

Well I'm sorry to those who dont believe it, but this story was on my LOCAL NEWS STATION. I somehow doubt they would have put it on television if it had not been confirmed by legitimate sources. And if it ended up being false, then i would imagine they would have done a revised story.

It's also been reported about on numerous television news networks websites and in news papers.


"A law in Pennsylvania allows hospitals to test moms' blood to protect newborns."

So it was her blood tested, not the babies. But anyway, look up this particular story. There are many credible news station/papers that have run the story.

That's insane! But definitely believable! Thanks for sharing, it's interesting.

if it were the news verifying that poppy seeds can cause a false positive the lead story would read "poppy seeds cause positive drug test" Im seeing a story about a woman CLAIMING she didnt do drugs, only ate ONE bagel. Im sorry, Im active duty military. We get tested regularly. none of us pop positive from a flippin BAGEL

Because the people running your drug tests obviously know what they are doing. This was caused by someone making a mistake. If she was a junkie, do you really think she would then pass another drug test barely days later?

There was a tv program researching this once, I remember watching it and they got a priest to eat 2 poppy seeded teacakes and gave him a drugs test after and it came up positive.

do you guys not watch myth busters? they did a segment on tis, they each only ate like two poppyseed bagels and both failed drugtests for hours after ingestion. i too was sceptical, but they proved i fair and square.
