Scientific Summary

Ilex aquifolium, commonly known as holly, is a deciduous shrub whose leaves and bark can be dried or processed into crude or liquid extracts. It is used topically mainly for moisturizing skin and treating eczema, and its extracts can act as a mild laxative when taken internally. Because the plant contains cyanogenic compounds, it should not be consumed in large amounts, and users should avoid ingesting raw or unprepared material; it can also cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals.
