That it can bring a person to drug intoxication. The exact and final effect of the oil has not yet been determined, since "petrushechnye" drug addicts in drug treatment clinics have not yet hit. But experts have already managed to find out that this oil has an effect similar to hashish or hemp.
However, with frequent use of parsley can cause a strong dependence. This is the reason for introducing spicy grass to the black list.
It should be noted that different parts of parsley have different chemical composition.

Psychoactive components from the oil substance penetrate into the body much deeper, they stay longer and last longer. But at the same time, to achieve this effect, you need to eat more than one kilogram of seeds. And to buy such an amount of narcotic raw materials, it will take more than 10,000 rubles.

And it seems as though no one has "covered" with parsley, at least an official confirmation that a similar effect comes from the seeds of spice, does not exist.
Opinion of specialists
According to the majority of doctors and scientists, the fact that parsley is prohibited and considered a drug is very doubtful. Yes, the seeds contain essential oil, but there are so few drug substances in it that it is unlikely to get a drug effect from oil. But with too abundant consumption of seeds, you can actually earn a stomachic disorder.
To get a real punishment for the cultivation of curly parsley on the bed, the prosecution must prove that the spice was grown for smoking purposes or for the production of drugs.
The very document-list of plants with a narcotic effect acts as a reference for a drug addict, which indicates which raw materials can be used to make a potent potion. And as for the recipe, today on the Internet you can find any detailed instructions, the question is only in time.
