1、 Can you eat snakeberry

Snakeberry can be eaten, but it is not recommended. First of all, snakeberry is slightly toxic. Although eating one or two has no effect on the body, eating too much will still cause physical discomfort. Secondly, although snakeberry looks like strawberries, it is not as sour, sweet and delicious as strawberries, so its edible value is not high, but it has a lot of medicinal value.

2、 What efficacy and function does snakeberry have

The reason why snakeberry is called snakeberry is not that it is poisonous and can't be eaten after being licked by a snake, as the older generation said. On the contrary, it is that the stems and leaves of snakeberry are smashed and applied externally, which can detoxify the poison of snake bite and have miraculous effects on burns and scalds. Fruit decocting can also treat bronchitis, smash the whole herb into water, water the flowers, and prevent and control agricultural diseases and pests, such as killing maggots and larvae.

Generally speaking, snakeberry has the effects of clearing heat and cooling blood, reducing swelling and detoxification. It is often used to treat fever, sore throat, snake and insect bite and other symptoms. However, no matter how many medicinal wonders snakeberry has, we can't pick it and eat it rashly. After all, as the saying goes, medicine is three poisons. Once you find that you have unwell symptoms, you must see a doctor. Follow the doctor's advice. You can't trust folk prescriptions or dispense drugs without permission.
