Hi..i just saw a minutes ago, mythbusters on discovery channel discover a new things that poppy seed products will effect on your drug test for about 36-72 hours. By just eating a kg poppy seed cake for adam and poppy seed bread for jamie, they confirmed positive on drug test by just an hour eat them. Is it too fast??

Yes it is too fast. Imagine that you take this bread for your breakfast before interview and  your new employer discover that you’re positive drug test that morning, do you think he will accept you? I think NO. They don’t want any of his employee are drug addict..But, his/they really don’t know that you’re not drug addict and its just effect on taking poppy seed breads. But for sure, you won’t get the job..

Testing labs have extensive procedures to re-confirm a positive test before reporting it. Most drug testing programs also utilize the services of an independent physician called a Medical Review Officer (MRO) to review all test results. In the case of a positive result, the MRO will normally contact the subject to determine if there is a medical explanation for the positive results. For example, eating poppy seeds before a test can result in a false positive for opiates. However, an MRO also knows that poppy seeds cannot cause certain levels of opiates, and certain additional testing can eliminate that.

There can also be tests that are “negative’ but show an abnormal result, such as a “low creatine level,” which can indicate an applicant attempted to dilute the sample by the excessive drinking of water or some other form of alteration. That is also a result that a MRO would examine.

Employers who conduct employer drug testing will find that a drug testing program will eliminate people with a drug abuse problem. Drug tests generally cost in the $50-$70.00 range, including collection of the sample, laboratory analysis, services of a Medial Review Officer, and communications of the results in the manner most convenient to the employer. Compared to the cost of even one employee with a substance abuse problem, most firms find eliminating the problem in the first place is well worth the time and money involved in an employer drug testing program.

So please think twice before take any poppy seed product before going out..
