Although belladonna can be beneficial in smaller doses, it is one of the most poisonous plants. If an adult eats even two to five berries, it's probably going to be lethal. If an adult eats even a single leaf, it can be fatal. Belladonna affects the body's nervous system, preventing the body's ability to control involuntary actions - such as breathing, heart rate and sweating. Some of the symptoms of belladonna poisoning are dilated pupils, light sensitivity and blurred vision, as well as loss of balance, a headache and a rash.
