I mostly fruit in June and July.
I grow wild on the sunny edges of the forest and in the clearing.

But you can only plant in the garden, but remember that fruits and leaves from the home garden have weaker healing properties than wild ones.

My fruit contains carotenoids, organic acids, some salicylic acid and ascorbic acid or vitamin C and mineral salts.

I nourish and strengthen the body, and detoxify you from the toxins and regulate metabolism.

Besides, thanks to my salicylic acid, I dissolve tartar, and also prevent gum disease and periodontitis.

I am used as a base of cosmetic masks, intended for oily skin.

But bear in mind that fruits can cause allergic reactions, especially in children.

So children can not eat me too much.

For therapeutic purposes are used leaves that are collected from the wild.

Drought in natural conditions in a dark and airy place.

Because the leaves contain tannins that have anti-diarrhea and bactericidal properties.

In turn, due to the content of flavonoids, the leaves' bloat have diuretic properties that can be used in the treatment of urinary tract disorders.

Organic acids, mineral salts and small amounts of essential oil can also be found.
