Regulating the trade of opium from Afghanistan is a matter of regulating commerce with foreign nations, and well within the original intent of the Commerce Clause.

Regulating everything that Congress "finds" has a "substantial effect" on interstate commerce is not.

Oh, I think the issue of Opium production and movement globally, is a bigger issue than just being a commerce issue.
