Ilex verticillata

Scientific Summary

Ilex verticillata, commonly known as Virginia holly, is a small deciduous shrub that bears glossy green leaves and bright red berries. The plant is traditionally used to soothe irritated throats, relieve coughs, and treat mild digestive complaints such as upset stomach or mild diarrhea. Because it contains natural caffeine‑like compounds and can irritate the stomach lining, it should be used in moderation, and people with allergies to holly or those who are pregnant or nursing are advised to avoid it.
