Berries are harvested and dried in Ukraine. Mountain ash - one of the fruit trees loved by people, has long been used as a medicinal, magical and ornamental plant. Healing infusions, drinks, teas, preserves, jellies, juices are prepared from mountain ash. This plant is often used for decorative purposes, as feed for livestock and birds, and processed fruits are suitable for the confectionery industry and the preparation of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages. Since mountain ash has a specific bitter aftertaste, it is not eaten raw, but it is often added to potent medicines, jams, candy, honey and many other culinary delights. Although this berry has a large number of medicinal properties, it, like other products, has certain restrictions on eating. The method of application in folk (alternative) medicine (preparation of medicinal infusions or decoctions, as well as a scheme for their further use), contraindications, can be found on the Internet.
