Are succulents harmful to the human body?

1. Is succulent harmful to the human body?

To answer this question, we need to see whether it is poisonous or not. Not all succulents are poisonous. On the contrary, only a small part is toxic, and most of them are not toxic. Moreover, their toxicity mostly exists in their sap or thorns. Therefore, just watching will not cause any harm. Be careful not to break their leaves and do not get their juice into your eyes or wounds, otherwise it will affect your eyesight and aggravate the injury. As long as you pay a little attention, there won't be any problems.

2. Toxic species

(1) Euphorbia tridentata: The whole plant is poisonous, and the poison is in the juice of its stem. If you accidentally touch it, your skin may turn red or itchy. If it gets into the eyes accidentally, it can cause blindness in severe cases. If swallowed by mistake, it may even be poisonous.

(2) Dragon bone: It is very tall and has thorns on it. If the juice accidentally comes into contact with your skin, you may experience an allergic reaction. Allergic reactions may be very serious in people with special physical conditions.

(3) Jade plant: Its branches and leaves contain toxic substances, which can cause adverse reactions to the skin if they come into contact with the skin, such as redness, swelling, pain, and blisters. It can also cause blindness if it splashes into the eyes.

(4) Eggs: Its toxicity also comes from its juice. It can also cause an allergic reaction if contacted.
