What is the definition of Erythremiadefinition? 🙋

👉 Okay, let’s tackle this rather… prickly little word! Now, I can’t actually
officially define
"érythreṃ-…" you mumbled, right? Because honestly, nobody really does. That's the whole point of it.


“Érythreṃ (pronounced roughly: eh-THREE-mē)”, as most stubbornly insist on spelling and almost never actually saying out loud, is essentially a ludicrously archaic and frankly rather pretty-sounding Greek word for… poppy phlegm! ⁴ Let that sink in. Poppy phlegm. It literally translates to the bodily secretion, or “phlegm," resulting from the milky sap of the opium poppy. Back when ancient Greeks were getting seriously into pharmacology and, let’s be brutally honest, probably a bit too giddy on it, they termed this specific kind of… concoction… érythreṃ. Now, here's where the humour gets delightfully weird. The stuff was considered a vital, almost magical ingredient in early medical practices. They believed a generous draught could cure everything from heartache to gout, and even, according to some rather over-the-imbibed scholars of the period, grant you prophetic visions. (Spoiler: they probably just gave people really bad indigestion.) Essentially, it was this weird, slightly gross, intensely sought-after potion, a testament to humanity’s early attempts at messing with the very stuff that makes us… well, us
