France: "Spinach" takes four women to hospital

 

Four women from the same French family, who ate spinach leaves and cooked them as spinach, were taken to hospital for medical treatment.

According to the details, four women of the same family who ate poisonous flower in France as New Zealand spinach had to go to the hospital in critical condition.

According to a foreign news agency, the French Food Safety Agency said that the four affected women had eaten Datura leaves.

According to the agency, the women cooked a dish of Datura leaves as New Zealand spinach, which they had grown in their garden. Authorities in France have warned people not to consider poisonous flowers as New Zealand spinach.

The agency said all four women showed serious symptoms, including fever, brain damage and kidney failure. However, the condition of the four women is now out of danger, but they will need long-term medical care.

Datura leaves have traditionally been used for magic in many cultures, often grown with the potato crop to kill insects.

According to the agency, the affected women had grown New Zealand spinach in their garden last year, but it did not grow then and they (women) thought it would grow.

A year later, they saw small leaves growing on the place where the seed was sown, and they thought it was spinach.

Authorities warn that datura grows in France and that every part of it is toxic and can have very serious and often fatal effects.
