Default Horseradish leaves

Does anyone know whether the leaves of the horseradish plant are edible or
not, please?

I have one gardening book that says the young leaves are very good in salads
and another that says the leaves and stems are poisonous!


I've eaten the very young leaves in salads but I understand old ones
are poisonous. So wait till next spring.
