Many people are superstitious about the health care function of "snake wine" and try to achieve the function of strengthening the body through snake wine, but they do not know that in recent years, there are many people who have had accidents because of snake wine.
A Mr. Fang in Harbin, in order to cure his son of acne on his face, got 3 live pit vipers to soak wine. In order to ensure the efficacy of the drug, Mr. Fang directly put the live snake into the wine, and then grabbed another poisonous snake and put it into the wine, but in the process of operation, the poisonous snake in the bottle suddenly burst out and bit Mr. Fang's hand.
Pit viper is a highly venomous snake, the venom contains blood circulation toxin, once bitten, the wound will appear painful, the wound will also appear swollen, blood flow and other characteristics. Fortunately, Mr. Fang rushed to the hospital in time and was injected with snake venom.
There are many cases of being bitten by a poisonous snake during the brewing process like Mr. Fang, which is because when the snake feels threatened, it will become very aggressive, and their poisonous fangs are connected to the venom glands, and once the opportunity is right, they will inject venom into the human body through the poisonous fangs, causing human poisoning, if the treatment is not timely, it is likely to die.
In addition to the irregular operation of the snake wine when making snake wine, which causes poisonous snakes to hurt people, the poisonous snake medicinal wine itself is also very dangerous, and can even cause chronic poisoning in humans. If not properly operated, it may also cause the snake wine to become "snake bath water", and the poisonous snake soaked in the wine will be revived and hurt.
There was once a villager in Guangxi who captured a cobra, but instead of releasing it, he soaked it in a rice jug. After a year of this, he opened the wine tank to get the wine, unexpectedly, the poisonous snake that had been soaked for a year was not dead, and he bit his neck while the other party took the wine, and finally died due to the ineffectiveness of rescue.
It may be said that the villager used a lower alcohol level to brew wine, so the snake did not die. But there is another case in our country, a woman put a pit viper into a high liquor soaked for 3 months, while soaking while drinking, when the wine was drunk to the end, the woman was ready to add wine again, the stimulated snake suddenly resurrected, biting her right hand, fortunately after treatment, the woman is not in danger of life.
The resurrection of a venomous snake soaked in alcohol may sound impractical, but it is not impossible.
The first is that snakes are cold-blooded animals, and when the outside temperature is low, they will go into hibernation and rely on the energy stored in the body to survive.
Secondly, when the oxygen content of the outside world is low, the snake will also enter a dormant state and can not eat or drink for several months.
If there is a small amount of air in the wine tank when brewing wine, or if there is contact with external air, it will cause the snake to enter a dormant state instead of death.
Because sleep also requires energy, when the snake wakes up again, they will feel very hungry and urgently need to eat, at which time it may attack humans, resulting in a case of "snake resurrection and injury". In fact, in the story of the farmer and the snake, the snake attacks the farmer because it has just woken up from hibernation, is very hungry, and needs to forage.
In addition to the "snake bath water", if the operation process is not standardized when brewing wine, it will also lead to poisoning by drinking snake wine.
In 2014, Mr. Xie, a citizen of Nanchang, opened the snake wine that he had soaked for 22 years, but after only one drink, his eyes were confused and he could not see clearly, until he slowly recovered after several hours.
According to Mr. Xie, this snake wine was soaked in 8 wild snakes 22 years ago, and many of these 8 wild snakes were poisonous snakes such as bamboo leaf green and golden ring snake, mr. Xie soaked it in liquor for many years and did not open it until 22 years later, I did not expect to drink it the first time I drank it.
It is reasonable to say that although snake venom is harmful to the human body, the main component of snake venom is venom protein, which can be slowly decomposed in high liquor, although it takes a long time to decompose, but 22 years of liquor soaking is enough to degrade snake venom protein.
Since Mr. Xie did not send the wine to a professional institution for testing, it is not clear what caused Mr. Xie to have a brief blindness in his eyes, and at present, it can only be guessed that it may be improper operation that led to the deterioration of snake wine.
If the operation is improper in the process of brewing wine, resulting in continuous volatilization of alcohol, it will lead to poor antiseptic effect of liquor, and the poisonous snake in the wine may be decomposed and corrupted by microorganisms, resulting in snake wine turning into snake corpse wine.
Since a long time of brewing wine may cause the snake wine to deteriorate, is it okay to soak wine for a short time?
This is not the case, a short time may lead to snake venom not being completely decomposed, and snake venom that is not completely decomposed may enter the human body through oral damage, esophageal damage, etc., resulting in poisoning.
In 2011, someone gave Mr. Lin'an Huang a bottle of snake wine, and said that it was a five-step snake soaked alive, soaked for about two or three months, and could treat rheumatism. After receiving the snake wine, Mr. Huang began to drink, and after drinking two cups, he began to vomit up and down, and he also started a high fever at night, but Mr. Huang did not go to the hospital, but thought that he would slowly recover.
After a week, Mr. Huang still did not get better, but was almost paralyzed, and his family took him to the hospital. After expert consultation, Mr. Huang was judged to have caused peripheral neuropathy due to accidental ingestion of snake wine, and the distal limbs were difficult to move due to insufficient muscle strength. Whether it will be able to recover in the future is unclear.
The first thing to say is that many wild snakes belong to protected animals, and it is illegal to hunt and protect snake bubble wine without permission.
In addition, although snake wine can be used to treat diseases in some medicines, not all people are suitable for snake wine, and not all snakes can make snake wine, especially poisonous snakes, which are more exquisite to handle, and do not use poisonous snakes to brew wine privately. If you really want to drink, try to drink as little as possible, and if you feel unwell, seek medical attention immediately.
