Colorado juniper
Juniperus scopulorum
Juniperus scopulorum，又称山间杜松，是一种主要分布在北美的传统植物。尽管它在各种文化实践中被使用，但没有特定的传统用途被记录下来。科学研究表明，与较高海拔相比，Juniperus scopulorum 在较低海拔的生长受到水资源可用性的限制更多。这种植物的灰烬每茶匙含有平均445 ± 141 mg钙，但其铅含量也有所不同，这并不清楚地表明它作为钙来源的安全性。化石记录显示，Juniperus scopulorum 曾出现在 Rancho La Brea，并在大约13 ka（千年）前灭绝。此外，在寒冷环境中生长的植物在冷适应过程中保持较高的可溶性糖与淀粉的比例，尽管非结构化碳水化合物总量的增加相似。对于这种植物没有记录到任何显著的安全问题或药物相互作用。

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。
