Is hairy vetch dangerous?
Hairy vetch could be ingested by mistake because its fruit is similar to the pea. It is a less toxic plant, but it can cause poisoning if consumed in large quantities. Hairy vetch contains some chemicals that prevent absorption of essential nutrients, thus long-term consumption will lead to inadequate nutrition, causing minor or even serious health problems. Please do not eat it, and seek medical advice if adverse reactions occur after being ingested by mistake.
