Elderberry (Fumaria officinalis)
Other names: Fumaria sturmi
Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)
Groundsel, also known as Fumaria sturmi, is a plant typical for its pink to light purple flowers, which appear from April to October. It is a poisonous herb that grows almost all over Europe, but can also be found in temperate areas of Asia. It is widespread in the Czech Republic and is often confused with the poisonous pupa. It grows in meadows, grasslands, paths, field margins or ditches.
Its use is mainly in medicine and the pharmaceutical industry, where its alkaloids are used for their medicinal effects on liver and gallbladder function. Traditionally, it has also been used as an excellent remedy in the treatment of skin problems such as eczema or acne. It is also useful for its diuretic and anti-swelling properties. Elderberry is therefore often found in the composition of various herbal teas, juices, oils or ointments. It is important to note that the plant should only be used in the appropriate dose and under the supervision of a professional, as it can be toxic to the body in larger quantities.
