Colorado juniper
Juniperus scopulorum
Juniperus scopulorum，又称山间杜松，是北美原生树种。尽管一些土著社区传统上将其用于制作篮子和工具等用途，但文献中没有记录其特定的传统医疗用途。科学研究表明，Juniperus scopulorum 样本含有不同量的钙以及可能有毒的元素如铅，但这些发现不足以证明它作为钙来源的安全性。植物生长在低海拔地区受到水可获得性的限制，而在高海拔地区则较少受限。拉布雷亚化石记录显示该树种的分布随着时间推移而扩大，并且有文献记载约13千年以前的灭绝事件。在寒冷适应过程中，来自较冷环境的植物保持了较高的可溶性糖与淀粉的比例，尽管非结构碳水化合物总量相似增加。对于这种植物没有记录到重大安全问题或已知药物相互作用。

科学怎么说
- 所有样品含有不同量的钙和潜在有毒元素，如铅，不足以确定其作为钙来源的安全性。
- 在较低海拔处，Juniperus scopulorum 的生长受到水资源可用性的限制比在较高海拔处更多。
- 研究在拉布雷亚 Ranchо化石中识别出 Juniperus scopulorum，扩大了其已知分布范围，并记录了其约在13 ka前的灭绝。
- 来自较冷环境的植物在低温适应过程中维持了更高的可溶性糖与淀粉的比例，尽管总NSC浓度有相似的增加。
