All the above furnish chrysophanic acid. The leaves of 

 R. acetosella are said to have been used in former 

 times with fish. The danger attendant on the use of 

 these herbs as a vegetable is evident when one bears in 

 mind the extremely poisonous nature of their contents. 

 Rumex acetosella is sometimes given for its diuretic 

 effect.
