However, Chinese fruits for weight loss have nothing in common with the plant, which is found in the forests of the North and central Russia, in Ukraine, Moldova and the Caucasus. Enterprising sellers often pass off the fruits of privet, nightshade, and wolf's bast as expensive imported goji.
Wolfberry, the photo of which reflects its external features - this is a fruit with a red or black glossy color. It is formed on a shrub with narrow oblong leaves, formed from a flower, filled during the summer and ripened by autumn. At this time, the branches are studded with large bright beads and look especially impressive. Thanks to this property Privet, for example, is planted in gardens for decorative purposes.
In spring, a bush up to 5 meters blooms with beautiful tassels, like lilacs. And in the fall, shiny purple fruits appear in place of the inflorescences.
Common nightshade, wolf's bast, produces black fruits with a glossy sheen. They are very dangerous and contain poison that is lethal to humans and animals. They are strictly forbidden to be used for food or medical purposes.

But with berries it’s more difficult. They all seem harmless, and at first glance it is very difficult to distinguish poisonous berries. Therefore, very often in the summer you can read in the news about poisoning with compote from or about severe intestinal disorders after eating fresh ones.
Let's figure out what are poisonous and inedible berries is in our lane.
Wolfberry (wolfberry)
This is a low shrub that blooms with white or light pink flowers, similar to lilacs. The fruits appear directly on the stem and ripen in July. Externally, wolfberry is very attractive: bright red, shiny, juicy. Children are eager to try these beautiful fruits. This is not difficult, because the shrub is grown as an ornamental plant around houses, in city parks and gardens.
However, the entire wolfberry is poisonous - the leaves, bark, and fruits are dangerous because they contain the toxic substance daphnin. Touching the bark or rubbing the leaves may cause red, itchy spots and blisters on the skin. With more severe injuries, necrosis of individual areas of the skin occurs.
Wolfberry also leads to severe food poisoning - for this it is enough to eat only a dozen fruits. There is a strong secretion of saliva, stomach pain, vomiting and cramps, rising high temperature. The functioning of the intestines and kidneys is disrupted. Recovery even with timely assistance takes a long time to happen.
Belladonna
This beautiful bush with dark green leaves that blooms with single large violet or purple flowers. The fruits are black, slightly flattened, similar in size and shape to small cherries. The taste is sweet and juicy.
Belladonna berries take first place in toxicity, since they contain three types of poison: atropine, scopolamine and hyoscyamine. Even a small amount of fruit can lead to slow and painful death.
Snowberry
This is an ornamental, extremely frost-resistant plant. It blooms all summer with elegant pink inflorescences, and in September-October it begins to bear fruit with white juicy balls about a centimeter in diameter. The berries decorate the bush for a very long time - until mid-winter.
Snowberry fruits are very poisonous and can be fatal.
Krushinnik (magpie berries)
This shrub blooms with small greenish-white flowers, in place of which small berries then appear. Unripe fruits are light red, while ripe ones are black. Eating buckthorn berries is not fatal, but it does lead to fairly severe nausea and vomiting.
Crow's eye
Low bushes of this plant are found only in the forest; they can be confused with blueberries or blueberries. But it is not difficult to distinguish: the berry grows singly, in the middle of the four-leaf corolla it has a very unpleasant smell. One or two berries do not pose a great danger, but a larger amount can lead to vomiting and diarrhea.
And a wrecker, and only affect gastrointestinal tract. Such toxic but non-lethal berries also include the well-known honeysuckle.
Adults, as a rule, are careful and do not try unfamiliar wild specimens. But children can be tempted by the beautiful colorful fruits.
What to do if a child manages to try poisonous berries?
First, you need to induce vomiting as quickly as possible. Before this, give the child a little weak drink to oxidize the stomach.
After the stomach has cleared, it is necessary to give the child a mixture of crushed activated carbon and water.
If possible, you should do an enema to cleanse your intestines.
If there is inflammation on the skin, wash the damaged areas with a solution of potassium permanganate.
After providing first aid, be sure to go to the hospital.

But poison can also be medicine. Is this true for wolfberry?
Wolfberry is not one, but several types of plants. They are united by the noticeable color of the fruit (red, orange, white, black) and at the same time their complete inedibility. In botany, a shrub up to 1.5 m high is known as wolfberry. The plant has long straight stems that have almost no branches, small green leaves and very beautiful tube-shaped flowers.
The fruits of the wolfberry are red berries that resemble barberries. They are small, pressed tightly against the stem, grouping into a kind of clutch around it. There is a yellow variety of wolfberry - the fruits are located in the same way, but unusual color may be misleading. The fruits can remain on the branches for up to late autumn, losing its toxic properties over time.

Why is the berry poisonous?

Composition of leaves and fruits of the plant
