About Viburnum Extract
In prehistory, the long straight shoots of some viburnums were used for arrow-shafts, as those found with ?tzi the Iceman.
The fruit of some species (e.g. V. lentago) are edible and can be eaten either raw or for making jam, while other species (e.g. V. opulus) are mildly toxic and can cause vomiting if eaten in quantity.
The bark of some species is used in herbal medicine, as an anti-spasmodic and to treat asthma.
